We are building another Single Room Occupancy Dwelling for Individuals with Disabilities! The Construction started May 1st and will be finished by November and will house 4 individuals with disabilities.
Most of the people that we house with disabilities became homeless due to the fact the could not afford the rising rent prices in our area so we developed this model house which has 4 tiny houses in one. Each bedroom has it's own bedroom, bathroom and Kitchenette which has it's own refrigerator and microwave. Included the rent are all utilities except the Internet (that is extra due to the price) So the average rent is based on income and does not go over $345 a month per person making it affordable so they can live. So for example if a person only makes $771 per month their rent is only $231 per month including utilities! These homes come with a shared Washer Dryer and a full kitchen that can be used by any of the tenants and the full kitchen has Stove and cupboards that can store more food and dishes if the home wants to have pot luck dinners!
These homes are a blessing for all who are housed there thank you so much to all who have donated to this cause and all that will donate in the future!
