Kadyja Harris found herself homeless at just 17 years old, couch surfing in friends’ homes and utilizing temporary drop-in centers for food and clothing in the Manchester area.

But it was after two years of scraping by that she came in contact with a case manager from the Transitional Living Program at Waypoint.
