Hello I am a 27 year old convicted felon. I am currently working and is seeking an apartment to have some stability and get on my feet. I have not served anytime however, I have been on probation for 5 years and currently have 3 years left. I have not violated my probation and I see my probationary officer frequently as well as wellness therapy for guidance and getting me through my current situation. I am inquiring about permanent and safe housing.
