The new Women Build home is located at 815 Potters Avenue and is being built with future Habitat homeowner Sheila White. White is a single mother of five children, ages 9 to 21, and the grandmother of one. Four of her children will be living in the home with White.
“Over the next six months, we will see a small army of volunteers working side-by-side with a local family to create a home,” said Carcieri. “This is the kind of work that has an impact on the need for decent, affordable housing.” •
