Our initiative aims to tackle the pressing and complex issue of homelessness by transforming homeless encampments into healthier, safer, and more inspiring environments.

Recognizing that current encampments often lack the basic infrastructure that contributes to the dignity and well-being of their residents, we propose to develop systems and products focused on sanitation, modular shelter, nature-based healing, and community engagement. By integrating these solutions, we aim not only to improve the physical conditions of these sites but also to foster a sense of responsibility and community among the inhabitants.

This initiative seeks to pilot this holistic approach in a town within the Kootenay region of British Columbia. By selecting a location with a variety of communities and potential for collaboration, we believe we can create a scalable model that could benefit other regions facing similar challenges. Our ultimate goal is to create encampments that are not just places of temporary refuge but are also conducive to the health, safety, and empowerment of their residents. Through this project, we envision igniting a positive cycle of change, inspiring individuals to engage in their living situations actively and the community at large to support these efforts.
