Shadequa is a HousingPlus tenant and Veteran. Today, she serves on our Board of Directors. After her time serving in Afghanistan, Shadequa experienced serious mental health complications as a result of post-traumatic stress syndrome and related issues of depression and anxiety. When she came to HousingPlus, she found what she describes as the “best apartment” she’s ever lived in. Shadequa’s story is a wonderful example of how housing can be the first step to a brighter future.
