Advocacy Work

Angela provided advocacy and guidance for severely ill clients whose disorder more often than not pushed them to the fringes of society, often homeless and without the basic necessities of life. In this capacity, Angela helped her clients be independent and live with dignity.  She accomplished this through advocating for financial compensation (i.e. disability benefits) and adequate housing, etc.  This often involved working long hours, digging through mountains of paperwork, writing letters and making phone calls to the powers that be, accompanying clients to  appointments and more. She did this with love in her heart and fire in her step!
