Description

Rex Hohlbein started a Facebook page that has become a thriving nonprofit called Facing Homelessness. Among other things, Facing Homelessness reaches out to local homeowners and places ADUs in their back yards to help house homeless people in their communities. There’s more to it than that and I hope you stick around for my conversation with Rex as we talk about the causes of homelessness, the way that society looks past homeless people, and what we can all do about it.Full show notes and images at thetinyhouse.net/194In This Episode:Just say “hello” and see what happensAre people really willing to let strangers live in their yards?How BLOCK homes are built and fundedHow Facing Homelessness matches their clients with a propertyWho owns what and whyUsing water, power, and sewer systems as educational toolsThis Week's Sponsor: Tiny House DecisionsTiny House Decisions is the guide that I wish I had when I was building my tiny house.
