For Adriana and Alberto Suarez, creating a stable and welcoming home for their family has always been a top priority. As devoted parents to two daughters, including 10-year-old Ximena, who utilizes a wheelchair, they faced unique housing challenges in the past. Regular therapy appointments and medical treatments had become part of their routine, and transporting Ximena had grown to become more difficult.
An accessible home wasn’t just a dream for the Suarezes; it was a necessity in order to provide Ximena with the comfort, dignity, and independence that every child deserves.
Through hard work, determination, and guidance from Habitat KC’s housing counselors, Alberto raised his credit score from zero to nearly 700 in just six months. Their commitment and perseverance laid the foundation for their new future as homeowners.
With an affordable, accessible home, the Suarezes can create lasting memories while also building their savings for the future. Most importantly, Ximena can enjoy her independence—playing, learning, and growing in a space that supports her needs.
