Tiny Homes residents also have access to all of CCSS\u2019s array of services and programs. The benefits of a Tiny Home are many, but also consider the pride with which a homeowner can declare that they own their home. This is a practical way to provide affordable housing and allow an individual to own an asset.<\/p>\n

CCSS owns unoccupied parcels of land where an additional 20 Tiny Homes can be constructed near where the current homes exist. The cost to do this is $2 million and will bring the total neighborhood of Tiny Homes to 45.<\/p>\n

I have learned so much about the needs of others, I grew up as a person of privilege and learned early on at Cass that many individuals did not have the basic needs that I did growing up. They are a worthy organization, CARF accredited, recognized for their innovative approach to impacting generational poverty and the money goes to those in need.<\/p>\n
