Why does home matter to our staff?
Home is where my family helps one another grow and be the best we can be.
Home is a safe, comfortable place I share with my family. It is a place to be the best version of yourself and help those you love to do the same.
When I think of home, I am reminded of the memories that have been created with my family and friends. It is a place where we can enjoy each other’s company, work through difficult situations, or just be silly without onlookers thinking we are crazy!
Home is where I feel safe. It is the place where my well-being is considered my highest priority, and I can live freely knowing that my flaws are known and accepted. Home to me is the security that no matter what happens throughout the day, I will be able to come back to a place surrounded by my favorite people and things and feel at peace.
Home is where I can reset and remind myself who I am and who I want to be.
Home means always having a place to take refuge after a hard day, a place to celebrate the good days, and a place to set intentions at the start of a new day. Home is my favorite spot on the couch and knowing that there will always be open arms waiting there for me.
Home to me is one of the only places that I can be my utmost self. All of my achievements, secrets, goals, creativity, and imagination lie in my home.
Home is the place where you belong, where you can gather with family and friends and share life’s memories.
Home is my happy place, it’s where I feel safe, cozy and at peace. Not only is home my safe haven, but for me, home is about who I share it with. It is where memories are created with my loved ones.
Home to me is a sense of security. I did not have secure housing growing up and I have fought hard to make that a priority and goal for my family. I understand the stress of housing need, especially in Fort Collins. It gives me great peace of mind and security knowing I finally secured housing for my children by purchasing my first home in 2017!
Home to me is not a specific place, but people that will love and support me no matter how big my hopes and aspirations are.
Home is the foundation where my family can feel secure, maintain stability, find comfort and come together. Home is the springboard of life and a sanctuary for my family. My children say that home is their favorite place to be.
Home is where I can let my guard down and be any version of myself. It is a place to be goofy, serious, sad, excited with no judgement from the outside world.
Home is the place where I am able to be comfortable and secure in my being. It is a place where my family can grow and bond together, where peace and happiness can be enjoyed and expressed.
A home allows individuals the chance to thrive and access their full potential. This is why my home acts as an anchor for my family. It’s foundation not only shelters us from the cold, but it also ensures that my kids can focus on being kids.
Home is a retreat where I go for shelter and security. Home is also where the heart is, and I go there to find the people I love the most.
Home matters to me because it the place where I am free to be myself. Home is a safe haven filled with love, comfort, support and dreams for the future.
