My name is Molly, and I created this page to raise awareness and destigmatize homelessness and drug addiction. I am in my second year of University to become a Social Worker and Lawyer. In 2018–2019, I faced a life-threatening substance use disorder. I was no longer engaged in my life and stopped attending school. I spent most of my time in downtown Victoria, witnessing the horrible condi
tions homeless youth endured. I became part of the “family” in downtown Victoria and got to know the homeless youth personally. I learned homelessness is not what most people think it is and that the reasons people become homeless are not what society believes they are. No one wants to be homeless or addicted to substances. With help, people can break the cycle. Together we can make a difference in our community. Homelessness Doesn't Discriminate.
