Staff Spotlight: Laura

Please welcome our new Housing Specialist in Toledo, Laura! Our Toledo office is excited to see what she brings to US Together, and we’re grateful for her efforts to secure housing for our clients.

“I found out about US Together in 2017,” Laura said. “The mission really connected with me, and I just wanted to help. When the Housing Specialist position became available, I applied.”

Laura is no stranger to helping underserved populations secure housing. Before she applied for this position, she used to help victims of domestic violence find long-term housing. Her mission simply expanded focus to include securing housing for refugees.

“I’m most excited about working directly with the families. I want to welcome them and just show them what a great city Toledo is,” she explained.

Laura grew up in Sylvania, and her hobbies include frisbee golf, paddleboarding, kayaking, and cross stitch.
