From a small group of individuals looking to live a more simple off-the-grid life to a full-fledged movement of minimalism mixed with unique design, tiny houses have ingrained themselves into our society.

But that’s not the story.

The story is the big impact these innovative housing solutions have had on the individuals who build them for themselves, build them for others, and who create entire communities to serve those in need. Join our hosts Zack Giffin and John Weisbarth as we meet the innovators, the policy changes and the visionaries who are solving problems and serving others through the simple but sometimes misunderstood, tiny house. These are the stories of hope, innovation and impact, a podcast from Operation Tiny Home.

Veterans Community Project Uses Tiny Homes as a Platform to Serve Veterans In Need

John and Zack speak with Bryan Meyer, the CEO and Co-Founder of Veteran Community
Project (VCP). This 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, founded in Kansas City, Missouri, is dedicated to supporting every man and woman who took the oath for our country and not letting any veteran fall through the cracks. Bryan,
along with a few other combat veterans, created this organization back in 2016 as a way to stand in the gaps of a broken system that left too many of their brothers and sisters behind.

Bryan is a former U.S. Marine corporal who deployed twice to Iraq. Following
the Marine Corps, Bryan returned home to Kansas City, attended the University of Missouri Kansas City, earning a Master's in Public Administration and a Law Degree.

The villages built by VCP utilize tiny homes to provide veterans
with privacy, a sense of security, and the ability to reintegrate at a comfortable pace. VCP has Veteran services facilitated through an on-site community center that provides the Veterans with mentoring, case management, counseling, and linkage to other programs
and services. There is also a Veteran Outreach Center on-site, where walk-ins are welcome and all services are free.
