I had been attending group therapy, which was helpful in its own way, but what ROSO did was different. They stepped in and met our needs in practical, tangible ways. They helped my boys and me with food, bill assistance, gas, and even made sure my kids had gifts on their birthdays and holidays. They also provided school supplies and clothing when I
couldn’t imagine how I would pay for those things. Their support was a huge part of me being able to find my independence again. With their help, I was able to pay off my debt and eventually come off state cash assistance.
ROSO never asked for much in return. All they asked was that I attend church on Sundays—which is something I love doing anyway—and that I not live with anyone of the opposite sex. Simple requests, but their impact in my life was anything but simple.
