Maureen,

I have checked these out before. I support using them. In Burlington, they are using them in a low barrier site. These I could see being used.

Take a tour of the brightly colored cabins and walkways of Alexandria Park Tiny Home Village in North Hollywood

Take a 360° tour of LA's Alexandria Park village 

Alexandria Park Tiny Home Village in North Hollywood is our largest project to date, with 103 Pallet shelters. The park transformed from a place where people lived outside to a community where people experiencing homelessness could get on the path to a stable life. People living in our shelters are staying in a dignified space with access to meals, showers/bathrooms, other wraparound services, and even a dog run for their pets.

Pallet shelters unveiled in Burlington, Wash.

- Rowan Vansleve, Hope of the Valley Rescue Mission
