WHY HOUSING?

Our corpsmembers cannot afford to live in our community

WHY HOUSING?

Addressing our corpsmembers' most substantial barrier to success

  • Despite earning a competitive wage (at least $20.85 an hour) at SJCC+CS, corpsmembers are struggling to live in the community they call home

  • 30% of corpsmembers are housing insecure

  • Young adults are being priced out of Santa Clara County

  • With access to supportive housing, corpsmembers can focus on education and career growth

Our Solution

OUR SOLUTION

Safe, independent, dignified housing.

Take a look inside!

PDU's are...

​Portable Dwelling Units

​​

  • Each unit is fully equipped for self-sufficient living

  • Full kitchen for healthy cooking

  • Complete bathroom with shower 

  • Temperature controlled with AC / Heat 

  • Plentiful storage and living space in 160 sq. ft. package 

  • Trailers are registered with the DMV and built to ANSI/NFPA code

Built by corpsmembers, for corpsmembers.

Corpsmembers gain valuable job skills as they build the PDUs from the ground up. Under the supervision of our tenured licensed contractor, corpsmembers learn a wide variety of technical skills that can kickstart their future career.
