PAGE 13 NEW HABITAT PARTNER FAMILY Aurora Guzman is a single mother with six children. Her story is one about family sticking together even when times get hard. The Guzman family has encountered many obstacles. And still, they seem to be a very cohesive family who help each other to make things work. Aurora described her life as filled with many ups and downs. When she first arrived to Utah, she and her children were living with another family. When her sixth child was born, she moved her family into a small apartment. This apartment had two bedrooms and one bathroom. Due to the size of the apartment, two of her daughters had to live with their father. It wasn’t long after that she was asked to leave the apartment. Apparently, there had been too many complaints of her having so many children and there was not enough room for her family. She then decided to move into another family’s basement. The basement they were living in was only one room with a bathroom and no space for cooking or laundry. Two of her children continued to live with their father, separated from the other children. Aurora and her four remaining children lived in the small basement for three months.Aurora missed her two absent children, but was having trouble putting food on the table for the four she had. She continuously worried that she might be evicted. It was becoming too much for her emotionally. All she wanted was a place where she could live reunited with all six kids. But no one wanted six children in an apartment. Due to this, Aurora decided to look for a trailer. Aurora finally found a trailer that was within her budget. There were holes in the ceiling and in the floorboards. The windows were so thin that cold wind blew right through the house. However, all the kids could fit in it and it was all she could afford, since other trailers were expensive. READ MORE: habitatwd.org/blog
