Success Statements

Illinois, September 2022
“Having been laid off and going through a breakup at the same time, I found myself with less than two weeks to find an apartment and another job. I had poor credit, not enough savings to cover the down payment on a new place, and started to experience significant anxiety. Luckily, I was connected with Operation: Job Ready Veterans. Beverly connected me with resources and helped with not feeling overwhelmed. She shared her personal journey with me and it really gave me hope. We were able to find an apartment and Beverly helped coordinate with other organizations to provide me much-needed assistance. Finding OJRV and Beverly was truly a godsend. I don’t know where I would have been without the advocacy, encouragement, and resources provided to me. I am truly grateful and appreciative of their compassion and having Veterans’ backs.”
