Homelessness is an issue that all cities face, regardless of their size. As budgets tighten and traditional resources are low, the homeless often find that they have few options for help. Modular buildings offer an easy and low-cost solution to help provide shelter for the homeless. These prefabricated buildings can be set up virtually anywhere in any city and, unlike traditional buildings, are not fixed to their initial location. Modular buildings can easily migrate to areas where they are needed most. This flexibility allows for new and innovative ways to tackle the issue of homelessness while respecting the city’s budget.

Cities have already implemented a variety of programs and plans that use of prefabricated units. One such example can be found in Dublin, using modular homes as a cheaper alternative to hotel rooms for its homeless. Vancouver has taken a major step forward by building a 40-unit modular building. This lays the foundation with modular housing that could be used to aid its homeless population. Another amazingly creative prefabricated response to helping the homeless is happening in Berkeley, CA. Patrick Kennedy has a prototype of a modular building that’s fully furnished and designed to house one person, possibly two. One fantastic feature of Kennedy’s prototype is that the modular unit is stackable, allowing the prefabs to become a building of small housing units. These are just a few examples of how modular buildings can be utilized in a myriad of ways to assist our nation’s homeless and provide them with an important piece of self-sufficiency; if more cities began building modular, the applications would be limitless.
