The brand new Casa Anita Complex has 96 units, including one, two and three bedroom apartments specifically designed for families with children.
For Amalik Rawsl, a cup of coffee has never tasted better: making it in his own kitchen, living in his own home — something he wasn’t sure was ever going to happen after he couldn’t find a job. He had no choice but to live in a shelter, and he eventually ended up living out of his car.
Rawsl is part of the more than 90 families living in the brand new Casa Anita Complex in Chula Vista, which had its grand opening on Friday, March 24. This housing development specifically caters to those who are experiencing homelessness or dealing with low income. “ We have an onsite after school program -- we do cooking classes, financial literacy, and for residents who are experiencing homelessness we go deeper with intensive case management services to help them overcome their obstacles,” Rebecca Louise, the President and CEO of Wakeland Housing and Development, says.
