Becca Wells and her three kids donât take anything for granted, and this Christmas, theyâre thankful for their first home in four and a half years. Itâs a two bedroom apartment, complete with a bed for 8-year-old Orion, 6-year-old Opheliah, and 4-year-old Avery.
When we met Becca and the kids last fall, they slept on a mat on the floor with dozens of other homeless families at Family Promise Open Doors Shelter. Becca says bad relationships, domestic violence and depression kept her and the kids from finding a place of their own. The shelter was their last stop before finding a home of their own.
