Meet the Escamilla Family

Partner Family profile: The Escamilla Family
Patty and Gabriel are the parents of three adorable children: Gabriel Jr., 7, and his twin sisters, Andrea and Liliana, age 5. All five currently live in a two room, 800 square foot, mobile home, that they share with Patty's parents.  It is difficult having 7 people in one mobile home, but the Escamilla's were unable to find a safe, affordable two-bedroom apartment to raise their 3 young children: Gabriel Jr., 7, and his twin sisters, Andrea and Liliana 5.

Gabriel works as a finish carpenter in town and Patty is currently a full-time mom to her three young children, and finishing her nursing degree at Santa Barbara City College. 

The Escamillas are looking forward to providing a stable, affordable home for their children.
The opportunity for homeownership would not be possible without Habitat for Humanity of Southern Santa Barbara County.
