Migrant Family Fears Living on Streets, Again
A Family’s Uncertain Future
WGN Investigates has been following a Venezuelan family as they work to build a home in Chicago. Earlier this year, we reported how the husband and wife both received work permits and found jobs, allowing them and their two school-age children to move into an apartment.
A Turn of Events
However, their fortunes have taken a turn for the worse. The mother’s job at a food truck may not last through the winter, and the father lost his job after an injury.
Fears of Losing Their Home
With the election over and the potential for more changes on the federal level coming, they wonder if they may be forced to leave the city they’ve called home for more than a year.
Struggling to Make Ends Meet
The family is now facing the very real possibility of living on the streets again. They are struggling to make ends meet and are worried about how they will afford rent, food, and other basic necessities.
A Future in Doubt
The father, who prefers to remain anonymous, said, “We’re worried about what’s going to happen to us. We’ve built a life here, but we don’t know if we’ll be able to stay.” The mother added, “We’re just trying to make a better life for ourselves and our children, but it feels like everything is being taken away from us.”
Conclusion
The future for this migrant family is uncertain, and they are struggling to come to terms with the possibility of losing their home and their livelihoods. WGN Investigates will continue to follow their story and provide updates on their situation.
