Pallet Shelters and the L.A. Conservation Corps are building a village of 103 tiny homes in North Hollywood, near Laurel Canyon Boulevard and the 170 Freeway. The goal is to offer a lifeline to those experiencing homelessness. To be eligible for assistance through the program, one must be enrolled at Victor Valley College, face housing insecurity or homelessness and maintain a 2.0 GPA. "This is kind of a hidden population," said Searchlight Society co-founder Cassandra Martinez. "It might be taboo for the student to be like 'Hey, you know, I don't have a place to stay.' But we are receiving referrals nearly daily."
