Jodi Johnson moved from California to Nebraska at age 58 because of a romantic relationship. Unfortunately, it ended badly, and she found herself homeless for a year, sleeping in her car and showering in public restrooms. She rode a bus straight back to her local VA office in California, which worked with LACDA to help her obtain housing through VASH and HIP. Having a place to stay has also benefited her son, who had a bone marrow transplant.
