Conestoga Huts are cheaper and easier to assemble than other individual shelters and tiny homes, and Hut Manuals are purchased around the world by those aspiring to build their own Huts. These resilient structures emphasize keeping unhoused people dry and safe. Security is a crucial asset; too many people on the street lose their belongings.

Safe Spot Communities
Supporting the unhoused starts with shelter, but it doesn't end there. We manage group-living environments called Safe Spot Communities, which foster intentional community, providing heat, water, porta-potties, hygiene, garbage service, kitchens, charging stations, and much-needed peer support and social services to unhoused individuals.
