Letter from the family:
Hello, my name is Guadalupe and I would love to express my family’s need and our current situation. We are currently renting but barely able to make rent each month. I constantly am stricken with anxiety because no matter what we do, it seems we’re unable to move forward. We do have a piece of land we are paying towards but we’ve been unable to make any advances on building a home there for ourselves. It feels frustrating to want to provide a better life for your children but to be unable to do so. We long for a safe home that no one can kick us out of. The home where we rent now is soon being rented to someone else. We hate the insecurity of not knowing what to do next. Thank you for reading our letter and allowing me to express myself.
