Why Shipping Containers? Here's a list.
Shipping containers enable fast, modular construction, especially when combined with efficient project management to allow simultaneous on-site and off-site building
Repurposing one-trip(mostly overseas) shipping containers helps reduce waste and free up valuable space at transportation hubs.
Shipping containers offer a sustainable, affordable, and secure solution for addressing the growing need for low-cost housing.
The modularity and mobility of shipping containers allow for creative, flexible housing designs tailored to community needs.
Their inherent strength and resistance to extreme weather make shipping containers a safe and durable option for affordable housing.
Due to their availability, low cost, and adaptability, shipping containers are an ideal choice for expanding affordable housing options.
We're Not Just About Providing Sustainable Housing Solutions
Homelessness is not a problem of scarcity—it’s a problem of distribution.
Though our mission is to provide constructive and practical solutions to homelessness by offering safe and self sustaining housing, we also aim to empower the participants of our program through comprehensive programs that encompass community, employment, and therapy.
We put focus on providing training in essential skills, such as agriculture, maintenance, repair services and job readiness. This personal development initiative would enhance employability and also allow individuals to take pride in their profession and feel a sense of responsibility, something that every member of society should hold.
We partner with local technical schools and community colleges to provide certifications in high demand trades.
Providing stable housing must include providing childcare services to allow parents to secure employment and education; our initiatives include:
Establishing fully equipped childcare centers within the community, staffed by qualified caregivers and educators.
Age appropriate play areas and onsite classrooms for added flexibility.
Parental workshops focused on skills like, time management, stress reduction, and child development.
Providing access to family counseling and support groups.
Regular Health checkups
Enforce rigorous safety protocols, including background checks, secure facility entry, and child monitoring systems.
Emergency readiness
A range of therapy options, including individual, and group sessions, substance abuse counseling, crisis intervention, therapy integration into daily life are just some of the therapeutic we hope to provide participants.
Understanding each and every participants' mental state is vital for curating a tailored diagnosis and plan of action. Professional assessments will guide unique recovery paths, addressing the psychological impact of homeless effectively.
