Featured story from The Quarterly

On a dark, sweltering summer night, just shy of two years ago, Claudia Moeller was walking home to her apartment in Princeton when, out of the shadows, she was attacked, robbed, and left thrashed on the sidewalk.

Shortly afterward that traumatic experience, she became homeless, and, having run out of options, came to The Shelter.

Read about how Claudia became an advocate, speaking on behalf of those experiencing homelessness.

“I used to sleep under a bridge, hoping I would not wake up in the morning...

Now, thanks to The Mission, my wife and I own an auto repair shop, hired our first employee (who is also in recovery), bought our own home, and our children are thriving. The Mission provided opportunities that helped me recover, then gain skills, confidence, and a sense of purpose.”
