CASA P.O.W. Project Brief

These home offices may function as viewing suites as well when showing
potential tenants the buildings, since they will be in the participating properties.
Maybe, a street office for drop-ins and an apartment for those making the
transition from the shelters or the streets, while waiting for approvals.

PROCEDURES

refer their clients as potential Tenants.
