Robert has been experiencing homelessness since a knee injury has left him without work. Without work, he lost income and housing. Robert has accessed medical services to address his knee injury, and has found the stability in shelter to focus on gaining employment. Robert has a vehicle, but without income does not have gas money to be able to attend interviews and secure employment. A gas card would allow him to be able to do this.
