The affordable housing crisis is hitting families across the country, including here in central Pennsylvania.
One Mechanicsburg woman, who spoke with FOX43 for this story on the condition of anonymity, and her two children have spent the past month living with Family Promise’s Harrisburg Capital Region branch.
Family Promise is a nonprofit that serves homeless families.
“Being homeless is traumatizing," she said. "Not knowing where you’re going to sleep or if you have somewhere to sleep. Having to put pride aside and call somebody and say 'Can I stay the night? If not me, my kids.' It definitely takes a toll on you.”
As a clean renter since the age of 19, she never thought she’d be in the position she’s in now.
