LONDON, ONT. --
Chelsea Provost-Newman says she'd be another statistic if she didn't get out of London & Middlesex Community Housing.
"I'd be another murdered, missing indigenous woman." says Provost-Newman.
A recovering addict and former sex worker, she says the place she was living in was 'dangerous and not safe'.
However she has secured an apartment in the Indwell Community Homes building at 356 Dundas St. in downtown London, Ont. and claims it not only saved, but changed her life.
"They do a lot of programs and not just with people in building but other services around town," says Provost-Newman.
"They work with places like Parkwood (Institute), Addiction Services (of Thames Valley) and the AIDS committee. This can make a huge difference in your life. It's not only a safe place over your head, but you have people around you if you are having a hard time."
