CEO of Crittenton Center, Kim Scorza, states,  "One of the things that we did a few years ago in our strategic plan was to really look at how to better support youth that were going to be aging out of foster care when they turn 18 and recognizing that some of those youths were ending up homeless. Our board didn’t like that, our staff didn’t like that, and definitely the kids didn’t like that. So we made a plan to develop a tiny homes community here on our campus. When Siouxland said they were going to take up this cause and wrap their arms around our agency and love our kids in such a significant way. Some of our donors may never meet our kids, but they love our kids nonetheless." The project is set for production by this Wednesday, 12/6/23, and should conclude by Spring of 2024.  ![IMG_9801](https://43565220.fs1.hubspotusercontent-na1.net/hub/43565220/hubfs/IMG_9801.jpg?width=1200&length=1200&name=IMG_9801.jpg) ![IMG_9803](https://43565220.fs1.hubspotusercontent-na1.net/hub/43565220/hubfs/IMG_9803.jpg?width=1200&length=1200&name=IMG_9803.jpg) ![IMG_9807](https://43565220.fs1.hubspotusercontent-na1.net/hub/43565220/hubfs/IMG_9807.jpg?width=1200&length=1200&name=IMG_9807.jpg) ![IMG_9797](https://43565220.fs1.hubspotusercontent-na1.net/hub/43565220/hubfs/IMG_9797.jpg?width=1200&length=1200&name=IMG_9797.jpg)   ![avatar](https://43565220.fs1.hubspotusercontent-na1.net/hubfs/43565220/critt_CC_RGB.jpg) #### [Crittenton Center](https://crittentoncenter.org/news/author/crittenton-center) ## RELATED ARTICLES Button Title --- [![crit-logo-wht](https://43565220.fs1.hubspotusercontent-na1.net/hubfs/43565220/crit-logo-wht.png)](https://crittentoncenter.org/) Sheltering, educating, and empowering children, individuals, and families.   600 4th Street Suite 100 Sioux City, IA 51101 [**Services**](https://43565220.hs-sites.com/services) - [Child & Family Development](https://crittentoncenter.org/services/child-family-development) - [Child Welfare & Well-being](https://crittentoncenter.org/services/child-welfare-wellbeing) [**About Us**](https://43565220.hs-sites.com/about-us) - [Our History](https://crittentoncenter.org/about-us/our-history) - [Board of Directors](https://crittentoncenter.org/about-us/board-of-directors) - [Our Staff](https://crittentoncenter.org/about-us/our-staff) - [Donate](https://crittentoncenter.org/about-us/donate) [**Events**](https://crittentoncenter.org/news/tag/events) - [Volunteer Opportunities](https://crittentoncenter.org/contact#volunteer-opportunities) - [Windmills & Wedges: Golf for OC Kids](https://crittentoncenter.org/news/windmills-wedges-golf-for-oc-kids) - [Calendar of Events](https://crittentoncenter.org/calendar-of-events) [**News**](https://43565220.hs-sites.com/news) [**Contact**](https://43565220.hs-sites.com/contact) [**Careers**](https://43565220.hs-sites.com/careers) [![COA_White_Logo_2019](https://43565220.fs1.hubspotusercontent-na1.net/hubfs/43565220/Global/COA_White_Logo_2019.png)](https://coanet.org/) [![phone-circle](https://crittentoncenter.org/hs-fs/hubfs/phone-circle.png?width=24&height=25&name=phone-circle.png)](tel:17122554321)    [![envelope-circle](https://crittentoncenter.org/hs-fs/hubfs/envelope-circle.png?width=24&height=25&name=envelope-circle.png)](mailto:info@crittentoncenter.org)    [![facebook](https://crittentoncenter.org/hs-fs/hubfs/facebook.png?width=25&height=25&name=facebook.png)](https://www.facebook.com/crittentoncenter)    [![linkedin-circle](https://crittentoncenter.org/hs-fs/hubfs/linkedin-circle.png?width=25&height=25&name=linkedin-circle.png)](https://www.linkedin.com/company/crittenton-center/)[tel:17122554321](tel:17122554321) © 2023 Crittenton Center | [Privacy Policy](https://43565220.hs-sites.com/privacy-policy-crittenton-center) ```json { "@context" : "https://schema.org", "@type" : "Organization", "address" : { "@type" : "PostalAddress", "addressCountry" : "United States", "addressLocality" : "Sioux City", "addressRegion" : "Iowa", "postalCode" : "51106", "streetAddress" : "4212 Gordon Drive" }, "knowsLanguage" : "en", "logo" : { "@type" : "ImageObject", "url" : "https://43565220.fs1.hubspotusercontent-na1.net/hubfs/43565220/crit-logo-color.png" }, "name" : "Crittenton Center", "url" : "https://crittentoncenter.org/news/tiny-homes-project-from-concept-to-realityt" } ``` ```json { "@context" : "https://schema.org", "@type" : "BlogPosting", "abstract" : "Crittenton Center Tiny Homes Groundbreaking Ceremony", "author" : { "@type" : "Person", "name" : "Crittenton Center" }, "dateModified" : "December 7, 2023 3 PM", "datePublished" : "December 5, 2023 10 PM", "headline" : "Tiny Homes Project: From Concept to Reality", "image" : "https://43565220.fs1.hubspotusercontent-na1.net/hubfs/43565220/Crittenton%20Mini%20Homes%20Renders-01%20printable-1.jpg", "inLanguage" : "en", "keywords" : "[News, Events]", "mainEntityOfPage" : { "@type" : "WebPage" }, "name" : "Tiny Homes Project: From Concept to Reality", "publisher" : { "@type" : "Organization", "logo" : { "@type" : "ImageObject", "url" : "https://43565220.fs1.hubspotusercontent-na1.net/hubfs/43565220/crit-logo-color.png" }, "name" : "Crittenton Center" }, "text" : "Crittenton Center staff, Board of Directors, State Partners, project Architects and Contractors, and Local Media gathered yesterday, 12/4/23, to officially break ground on the construction of the Tiny Homes.
