Linda Wood Project

 

This particular project is located in Newton. The new house is being built behind a mobile home that is really unlivable due to Rita damage. The project materials are being funded by DETCOG and Self Help Housing of East Texas. This project is being done by the MDS group at the RV center at First United Methodist Church.
