“Home.”
It’s a word that can carry layered meanings for each of us. We’d like to share a beautiful reflection on the idea of HOME from our incredible Resource Navigator, Elena, who has recently completed her MSW practicum with us and who has offered SO MUCH support to our Window of Kindness community over the course of her time with us.
This month we hear from super volunteer Erin Bosik about what Home means to her:
"Home is the life and lives that make you feel your most supported and centered - the people, animals, hearts, minds, places and actions that make you feel whole and alive. It's so much more than just a place or a group of people. It's everything that grounds you..."

This month we hear from Jill, a Window of Kindness volunteer about what home means to her:
"Home is safety. It’s a feeling rather than a place. It’s me feeling like I can relax and be my truest self without judgment or disrespect. It’s when I wake up first thing in the morning and don’t have an immediate thought that I need to do something to protect myself. I’ve lived in houses and apartments with people where I was physically sheltered and not physically, mentally or emotionally safe, and those were never my home. My partner and my children are home. With them I am safe and loved”
Thank you, Jill!
