Tiny Shelters
Housing is a human right. Yet every year, hundreds of our neighbors across Toronto are forced to sleep on the streets.

Winter is approaching & the second wave of COVID-19 upon us, we are facing a homelessness crisis.
If the government won't act, then it's up to us.
Tiny Shelters can keep one person warm in -16C weather and are built on caster wheels for ease of transport.
Foam domes are cheap and fast solutions to keep people from freezing in their tents this winter, with a Carbon Monoxide detector and vents to keep folx safe.
how can you help?
Support Encampment Support Network (ESN) to provide food water and build foam domes for houseless folx

Homelessness among military veterans in Clackamas County is on the rise. According to the Clackamas County 2017 Point-in-Time Count of Homeless Individuals, the number of homeless veterans increased by 15 percent between 2015 and 2017. This year, however, a small group of homeless veterans in Clackamas County have a reason to celebrate. Instead of sleeping on the street or in unstable housing, more than a dozen military veterans are now safe and secure in their own tiny dwellings.
Those tiny dwellings make up the Clackamas County Veterans Village, a transitional shelter community for veterans. The village is the result of a collaboration between Clackamas County, Catholic Charities, Communitecture, City Repair, the Village Coalition, Lease Crutcher Lewis, Portland State University School of Architecture, the Center for Public Interest Design, partners in the City of Portland and Multnomah County, and others.
