The Grove in Sacramento, California is a tiny house neighborhood where emancipated foster youth — or those between the ages of 18-24 facing homelessness — find the first place of their own. Formed by First Step Communities, it offers housing and a comprehensive program to empower young adults to transition into adulthood. The Grove held a “cabin beautification competition” with area partners to transform the 50 sheds into more comfortable and dignified spaces through an “Adopt-A-Cabin” program. In the end, 31 companies “stepped up” to adopt cabins. First, they created concrete pathways outdoors to make it easier for residents to move about the property. Then, they turned their focus to the interiors of each cabin. As the organization’s social media post said: “This is the power of people coming together to create change.”
