Healing Work, Healing Home

Meet Darion—an incredible mother, LPN, and dedicated advocate for veterans at the VA. While juggling a full-time job, raising her child, and completing nursing school, she also put in the volunteer hours to achieve her dream of homeownership. 

Her journey wasn’t easy, but with faith, family support, and determination, she made it happen! She’s most excited about the positive mental and physical health benefits of having her own space. To her, Home is a place where she can feel safe, raise her family, and create lifelong memories. 

Her advice to others? “Go for it. Put in the hard work. You’ll get there, and you’ll be rewarded in the end.”

Special thanks to Gateway for helping make her dream a reality.
