Beloved Community Village Now Open: First Tiny Homes for Denver's Homeless

In late July, the first residents of Beloved Community Village moved into new tiny homes in RiNo; on July 29, they held an open house for the media. During two months of construction — after many months of work with community partners — the Colorado Village Collaborative and more than 400 volunteers built the eleven units. Watch for a bigger thank-you event in August. All photos by Brandon Marshall.
