Finding Safety and Community at Harmony Village - Laurie's Story

After a 30-year nursing career, Laurie faced challenges that left her without a place to call home. She turned to Habitat for Humanity Yuba-Sutter’s Life Building Center for daily necessities and support, where she connected with a case manager who helped her transition into Harmony Village, a Permanent Supportive Housing community in Yuba City operated by Habitat for Humanity Yuba-Sutter, which provides long-term, affordable housing with supportive services for individuals transitioning out of homelessness. Now, two years later, Laurie and her loyal dog Max have found the safety, stability, and sense of community they once lost.

Her story is a reminder of the lasting impact that safe, affordable housing can have. At Harmony Village, Laurie has not only rebuilt her life but also rediscovered the comfort of friendship and belonging. This transformation was made possible because of supporters like you, who believe that everyone deserves a second chance and a safe place to call home.

Supporting Those Who Served: Yuba-Sutter Stand Down Veterans Resource Fair

Earlier this month, Habitat for Humanity Yuba-Sutter joined local partners at the Yuba-Sutter Stand Down Veterans Resource Fair, an event dedicated to connecting veterans with the resources and recognition they deserve. The fair provided a welcoming space where veterans and their families could learn about housing options, healthcare services, employment opportunities, and educational support. It was a chance not only to connect with vital programs but also to celebrate the service and sacrifices of our local veterans.

Habitat was proud to take part by sharing information about our affordable housing programs, critical home repairs, and supportive services that help veterans build stability and security. For many who have served, the transition back into civilian life can bring new challenges. Safe, affordable housing is a cornerstone of long-term well-being. By being present at the fair, we were able to connect directly with veterans, listen to their stories, and let them know that Habitat and our community partners are here to walk alongside them.

Events like the Veterans Resource Fair highlight the power of collaboration. When local organizations come together with a shared commitment to honor and support those who served, real change happens. Habitat is grateful to be part of that effort, and we remain dedicated to ensuring that every veteran in our community has the opportunity to find stability, dignity, and a safe place to call home.

National Night Out at Harmony Village

This month, residents of Harmony Village joined neighbors across the country in celebrating National Night Out, an annual event that builds connections between communities and local law enforcement. Hosted right at Harmony Village, the evening brought together neighbors to enjoy food and time spent strengthening relationships in a safe, welcoming space.

For many residents, the event was more than a night of fun, it was a reminder that they are part of a larger community that cares for them. Events like these help foster trust, reduce isolation, and create the sense of belonging that is so vital to long-term stability.

At Habitat for Humanity Yuba-Sutter, we believe that housing is just the beginning. Safe neighborhoods, strong relationships, and supportive communities are what turn housing into a home. National Night Out at Harmony Village was a powerful example of how, together, we can build not only homes, but also hope.
