PCHA Resident Achieves Homeownership

Ms. Tyshecia Coleman has been a participant of the Housing Choice Voucher Program since August of 2008. In April of 2014, she applied to participate in the Homeownership Program. She was referred to Tampa Bay CDC for credit counseling and worked diligently for a year and a half to repair her credit. During that time, she also maintained her full-time employment and completed her required sweat-equity hours for the Habitat for Humanity Program.

Ms. Coleman closed on her Habitat for Humanity three-bedroom, two-bath, 1,291 sq. ft. home on December 14, 2015. Ms. Coleman and her two daughters are overjoyed with their beautiful new home. Tyshecia is proud she was able to show her daughters that hard work and dedication really do payoff!
