Isn’t it cruel to force someone to live in a tiny house?  Why don’t we just build more affordable housing?

In a perfect world, that would be the best solution.  But in reality, it takes 3-7 years to purchase a property, design a building, do neighborhood outreach, and build and occupy the building. Meanwhile, nearly TEN THOUSAND of our fellow citizens languish on the streets. Many people without homes are on wait lists for permanent housing for years.  In the meantime, their only options include living in tents, RV’s, and encampments – and THAT’s cruel.

Building tiny homes and villages is an inexpensive, scalable, and achievable homelessness solution to get our homeless neighbors off the ground, out of the tents, and into a safe, secure, and dignified space until permanent affordable housing can be obtained.

Tiny home villages had a 90% occupancy rate in 2025, making them by far the most desired shelter type by those who need it.
