Trailer: HALO Short Documentary "HALO Stories: Caylin"

Trailer for Episode 3: Caylin
Twenty-five-year-old HALO Alum Caylin is featured in the HALO Short Film Documentary titled “Caylin”.
“HALO believes every child should have the support of a family,” said HALO Founder Rebecca Welsh. “For years, we’ve supported kids like Caylin who share powerful stories of resilience and become contributing members of our community. When we invest in our kids, their life’s trajectory can positively change forever.”
HALO provides the foundation of a family by providing homeless kids a safe place to sleep and fulfilling a spectrum of needs, from simply surviving the night, to surviving their first job interview, to helping them learn how to make it on their own as successful young adults.
“HALO met Caylin at the age of 15 when she was in search of stability and a safe place to live and raise her baby Avalynn,” Welsh said. “Caylin was a hardworking, young teen mom, who wanted to give her daughter everything she could. Through the years, she has remained involved with HALO and always comes “Home” for the holidays. Caylin graduated high school and went on to college. She has a secure job with benefits, and just bought her first home. Caylin dreams of creating the best life for her 10-year-old daughter Avalynn to provide her with the opportunities she never had. When we invest in the youth of our communities, great things happen. Caylin just needed some support, and she absolutely deserved it. She has broken the cycle for her daughter Avalynn and generations to come.”
