Partners Helping Us Knock Out Debt
A local woman was referred to us by our partner agency - Bridges for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing. Working with a sign language interpreter, we identified that she has a dream of living on her own (she has been living with her family) but had major medical debt (over $50,000 owed). Our team empowered her by helping her call to confirm her debt and then to apply for assistance through her hospital.
We are now proud to report that her debt was reduced to ZERO! Even her accounts in collections were removed. She now can look forward and work on her dreams of independence.
