When other immigrant families need a place to stay, it seems only natural for the family in la casita to help.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTogether they turn the house into a place where other new immigrants can help one another. Esperanza is always the first to welcome them to la casita. It’s a safe place in a new land.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTerry Catasus Jennings first came from Cuba to the U.S. in 1961, when she was twelve years old.
