February 14, 2026 (San Diego) - By every metric, Katrina Lewis’ life is better than a decade ago.
She’s sober, no longer homeless, and in a non-violent romantic relationship after escaping sex trafficking. Her recovery enabled her to work a part-time job at a mall, reconnect with family, and see a therapist for her PTSD, schizophrenia and bipolar disorder.
She’s feeling slightly safer and learning to cope with things. Her cats are happy. It’s progress, and Lewis credits much of it to her five years in a rental assistance program.
