Seattle has an innovative project called the Block project which puts a tiny home into a volunteer's back yard. Candidates are homeless individuals who have been working with social workers for at least 6 months and are a good fit with the "landlord" which is the homeowner of the hosting site. The Individual pays minimal rent to cover utilities (hopefully subsidized via the government and facilitated by social workers). The lease is for 5 years with the goal of helping the individual get back on their feet to a traditional housing situation. The project is from the Facing Homelessness organization. They have placed 4 or 5 individuals at this point.
