I’m the proud mother to two amazing sons. As a single parent, my primary focus has always been to provide a sense of safety and security for my children, during the good times and especially amidst the bad. The financial fear that I’ve experienced for years, due to lack of affordable and stable housing, has been bittersweet.
Owning our own home, and working hard towards that goal, have now become a reality thanks to HAHFH and RLACF. I’ve had the privilege of learning new skills related to home construction that will serve me for many years to come. I’ve met amazing people, embraced what I’m capable of, and I’ve forged new friendships with the other people building their homes and my home, the people I work beside twice a week, whom I’ve come to love and admire.
