FACES OF AFFORDABLE HOUSING

Carrie Duran, Lakes Region Community Developers Resident and Board Member.

Affordable housing is about everyone in our community being able to afford a home that supports good physical, financial, and emotional well-being. LRCD will feature stories of residents who live in our affordable housing throughout the year. We will share their life journeys, struggles, triumphs, and aspirations. We think you will find that their goals and dreams are not so different from your own.

Carrie Duran, a NH native and divorced/single mom of three girls, moved back to NH in 2013 after spending several years in Los Angeles where she had hopes of becoming a star, and later got married and started a family.

While she may not be a star in Hollywood’s terms (she decided it wasn’t the right path for her), she is a star right here in her community. When her marriage ended, Carrie moved home to NH with her twin daughters (now 15 years old), and youngest daughter (now 10 years old) who has Down Syndrome, to be closer to her greatest support system, her family.

Carrie and her “girls”, as she likes to refer to them, are residents in LRCD’s Harriman Hill apartments in Wolfeboro. Since her return to NH, Carrie has not stopped.

Our goal is for everyone in the Lakes Region to live in a home that supports good physical, mental, and financial health and is empowered to reach their full potential.
