Living at Eden Village Springfield
What to Know…
- Each tiny home is single occupancy only.
- There is a waiting list, most properties are at capacity.
- Residents are not selected in chronological order.
- Many factors are considered in the selection process to ensure it will be a good fit for the individual, if they will be a good neighbor and an asset to the Eden Village community.
A home is a basic necessity, essential to a humans’ well-being and only once this need is met, is it possible to address other needs. The key to recovery is building relationships with the community. This could not be accomplished without the help of volunteers and service providers who partner with Eden Village to foster community and invest in the lives of our residents. For these individuals this is a long process which will require continued dedication by the community.
