Castro family finds a house in Newark relief move
In Newark the Castro family, aided by a welfare worker, secured an affordable home after facing rent barriers. Landlord Muriel Lynch lowered rent to 160 a month until the Alameda County Housing Authority could cover the difference, allowing the family to move in with duties to clean and paint. Relatives and volunteers celebrated a fresh start as the children reunited with a father they hadn’t seen in a decade and discussed settling permanently rather than returning to tents.
