The Challenge

About Eden Village

Can you imagine not knowing where you will sleep tonight? When you will eat again? Carrying every single possession, you own? Not being able to find the help you need for your mental or physical disorders? Eden Village was the first of its kind, a tiny home community that debuted in Springfield, Missouri in August of 2018. It has lifted disabled homeless individuals off the streets, into a home within a gated community with the support services needed to recover from life on the streets. The community center is furnished with a kitchen, laundry room, computers, offices for professional service providers, and space to socialize. There is also a community garden, a woodworking shop, a neighborhood store, outdoor grills, and a storm shelter. Join us in helping keep our homeless friends off the streets and into a home.
