Lori White loves her apartment.
Inside of the one bedroom, which came fully furnished, the walls are painted a cool blue. From her living room there’s a clear view of Greenfield Lake.
“It’s just a godsend blessing,” the 62-year-old said.
White now lives at Lakeside Reserve, an affordable housing unit with 40 apartments for chronically homeless adults with disabilities, including seniors and veterans. Residents have access to on-site case management and supportive services provided by staff from the Good Shepherd Center, an organization which provides services to the Wilmington-area’s homeless population.
Before finding out about resources offered by Good Shepherd and Lakeside Reserve, White was homeless something she never was before she came to Wilmington.
