What if one act of kindness could change a life forever? At 13, Jasmine walked through the doors of Safe Haven Youth Shelter scared and uncertain about her future. Today, she's a successful paralegal, a loving mom, and someone who makes sure youth facing similar challenges know they're not alone.

Every Christmas, Jasmine and her family deliver a holiday meal and treats to Safe Haven, giving back to the place that helped change her life.

"I want them to know they're not forgotten; people believe in them and want them to succeed."

“Since joining Starling, I have experienced meaningful growth while also bringing my unique African experience and background into our client-centered approach. My role in supporting individuals to secure and maintain housing has strengthened my skills in advocacy, crisis intervention and above all community engagement." - Tinashe, Housing Stability Worker

Making an impact starts with being able to show up as your authentic self.
