From the Plain Dealer paper for November 28, 2024

By David Friese Nelson

"The organization [Advantage Housing] was able to locate a safe, clean dwelling for [Ms.] Watanabe and her family of six."

" 'Without her [Mrs. Rhonda Duhamell], without Advantage Housing, we would be homeless,' said [Ms.] Watanabe, whose family faced a housing crises through a series of unfortunate events, according to [Ms.] Duhamell. "

"[Ms.] Watanabe is currently studying to be an elementary school teacher. She said working toward that goal, as well as the aid of Advantage Housing, has helped her to get closer to realizing her dreams."

" 'There is a need for this organization and others like it in the community,' said [Dale] Bliss. 'Oftentimes, we have someone who comes to us with just the clothes on their back. They are in great need.' "

" 'There's a lot of people who are one blown transmission of their car away from making some major financial decisions. Many just one paycheck away from deciding between food or rent or mortgage,' said Keri Salb-Mertz, community wellness coordinator for Purdue University Extension of Wabash County."
