Tiny Homes for Veterans
At CIVC, we are dedicated to supporting veterans and their families through a variety of services. We understand that it can be difficult for veterans to transition back into civilian life and that's why we strive to provide them with the resources they need to do so.
One of our most unique services is our tiny homes program. We provide veterans with affordable, permanent housing that is tailored to their specific needs. We also have additional programs to help veterans continue their education, find employment, and receive mental health services.
