ThriveLA Tiny Houses + Respect + Integration = Veterans Excel in Los Angeles This is not just about housing, it is about living in a thriving community.

Our Vision: To eradicate Veteran homelessness by creating an ecosystem of sustainable tiny house communities. The core idea of ThriveLA is to provide housing to vets at under $100 a month in the form of tiny houses within tight-knit, largely self-sufficient communities that are safe and sustainable. Though each unit will be small, it will be independent, and have outdoor space with communal gardens for fresh produce. Studies increasingly show the importance of community in relation to health and happiness, not to mention generating support networks, overcoming addiction and loneliness, shared responsibility, and a sense of belonging and contribution. To add to this sense of contribution, we will also provide skills training to residents that enable them to service the community’s needs, including maintenance, security, farming, cooking, electricians, IT, and community leaders. These skills provide the experience and knowledge that could be utilized if and when they decide to leave.

Since 2015, ThriveLA has been advocating for the right to build smaller, urging LA County to remove its prohibition against dwellings smaller than 800 square feet. Yesterday, the County finally agreed, and even called this a critical step for enabling affordable housing options. Hallelujah! Special shout outs from me (Perry Goldberg) to Renata Valree Eli Lipmen Myra Lerma Robert J. Strock Logan Goldberg Genna Goldberg Rosenberg and the dozens more who have supported ThriveLA's work over the years. But with that hurdle finally overcome, so many more still remain. For example, the County still has an anti-development stance regarding the Antelope Valley, the only place in LA County where there is still abundant land that is inexpensive. And the County has overlooked workforce housing as a pivotal piece of the puzzle for solving the housing crisis. Check out our comments yesterday expressing gratitude for this tiny (house) victory and urging a focus on workforce housing in the AV.
