Notes: The family has lived in Santa Patricia since 2003. They came here to live after Isabel was divorced. She receives a small amount of support monthly from the children’s father. Isabel had a home store which didn’t do well. She is now working at the peanut factory. They had supplies, and are working on building and inside toilet. Jorling is doing well in nursing school. She works three days a week from 8 to 12, and two days a week all day. She earns 40 cords a day for the half days, and 80 cords a day for the full days. She has saved the money she earns to buy the equipment she needs for nursing. She very proudly showed us these things. Jorling attends nursing classes all day on Saturday. Jorling works from 6pm to 6am Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday as part of her schooling. The lady she works for making food during the week is very good about giving her time off if she more time to study. Jorling is a very busy hard working girl. This family is working very hard to improve their situation. In 2015 Jorling received a computer to help her with her nursing program.
