2 – Who the Village Serves
No, The Other Side Village provides high-quality, permanent housing. Any individual who qualifies can live in the Village permanently, providing they pay their rent, abide by civil law and follow the rules of the community. The Village is a community that serves the needs of those that experience homelessness chronically and who may have severe mental and physical disabilities with long-term support needs. Our facilities are designed to meet each resident’s needs for the rest of their lives, should they choose.
A broad range of services will be available on-site to our residents with facilities designed specifically to accommodate their unique needs. Services will be accessible to those with disabilities. Access to high-quality services is at the heart of our community. These services will include:
- Full-time behavioral health case managers
- Primary healthcare service
- Work opportunities through The Other Side Village Social Enterprises
- Regular farmer’s markets to provide residents with healthy, nutritious, and free vegetables harvested from the Village’s main gardens
- Employment opportunities
- Supportive community services and activities
The homes in the Village are beautiful, affordable, and accessible for those with disabilities. Homes provide 250 to 400 square feet of livable space, including a bedroom, a living room, a bathroom with a shower, and a kitchen with all the appliances. Our standard for home building is that it must be a place that anyone would be happy to live in.
