The Human Aspect of Acesiz

The shame and frustration of being homeless almost destroyed me and my family. We were evicted after 20 years in our home, and suddenly our life was turned upside down. We found ourselves at the bottom of the wealth divide and my mother and I struggled to make ends meet for us and my little brother. I started feeling cheap inside and slowly it was taken over by an overwhelming feeling of worthlessness.
