As a single mom, being a homeowner is more than just a roof over our heads, it’s a symbol of stability, security and independence. Homeownership will prove that I can create the life I want for my girls, and that together we can turn dreams into reality.” - Jocelyn, Habitat Homeowner
I want to be a homeowner because I've never had a place I could really call my own. Owning our home will bring stability into our life. A safe place where we can build legos together, watch silly animal videos, and grow.” - Jessica, Habitat Homeowner
