I am Women’s Bean Project: Katy

Hello, I am Katy. I first became involved with Women’s Bean Project in January 2022, because I needed to get my life in order. My life is different today because the Bean Project helped me get off probation, and to find an apartment. My goals for the future are to use my life experience and street outreach to give back to the community I have been apart of.

It’s been a long journey. A good journey, but a long journey. I’ve accomplished a lot since I’ve been here. My words of advice to all of you is to hold on to every opportunity that they give you and use them to your advantage. They’re there to help you, and they do their best in every opportunity that you get. I thank everyone for my journey, and all the help that you guys gave me. I couldn’t have done it without you.
