When John first connected with Wyoming 211 and the ADRC, he was experiencing homelessness and living in his car. With assistance from the Sweetwater County Family Resource Center, he was able to stay in a motel and eventually secure a low-income apartment in Green River.
 
After feeling unsafe in his apartment due to issues with neighbors, John made the difficult decision to leave and relocate to Cheyenne. Although he received support from a local church, he continued living in his vehicle while searching for a better opportunity.
 
John’s persistence paid off. Through connections he made in the community, he secured a job with an oil rig company and was offered a room to live in. Today, he is earning a good income, has stable housing, and can comfortably meet his basic needs.
 
John expressed his gratitude for the support he received from Wyoming 211 and the ADRC, especially having someone to talk to during a difficult time. His story is a reminder that the right support and determination can help turn challenges into new opportunities.

When Gregory contacted Wyoming 211, he was facing several challenges while waiting for a decision on his SSDI application. Living with an amputated leg and diabetes, he needed housing, medical care, and additional support services.
 
Through referrals and community partnerships, Gregory was able to secure an apartment, connect with a medical provider, obtain needed pain medication, apply for the Medicaid Waiver Program, and begin receiving Home-Delivered Meals shortly after turning 60.
 
When Gregory needed help applying for SNAP benefits, the ADRC assisted by preparing portions of the application and simplifying the process.
 
Today, Gregory is settled into his apartment, connected to the services he needs, and doing well. He expressed his appreciation for the support provided by Wyoming 211, ADRC Wyoming, Wyoming CommuniCare, and community partners who helped him achieve greater stability and independence.

When Patrick connected with Wyoming 211, he was experiencing homelessness and staying in a motel. Through collaboration between Volunteers of America (VOA), Wyoming CommuniCare, ADRC Wyoming, PATH, and other community partners, Patrick received assistance with housing resources, including help with his apartment deposit, first month’s rent, and application fee.
 
Because Patrick is vision impaired, the ADRC Navigator helped retrieve and complete his apartment application and accompanied him to submit the required paperwork.
 
While waiting for his apartment to become available, Patrick secured temporary shelter at COMEA. Patrick continues to work with his CommuniCare Navigator and community partners as he moves toward stable housing and a brighter future.
