Another parent describes always feeling welcome at SAY’s Military Family Resource Center and says their daughter looks forward to coming every week. A youth advocate describes The Collective as “a powerhouse” that supports movements, provides a safe arena to find and understand resources, and offers meaningful connections. Another parent reports receiving assistance from SAY San Diego with a housing deposit and gift cards for presents for their children after receiving a 60-day notice to move.
