• PC: Benevolence FarmA woman who spent 27 years in prison inspired a North Carolina farm to create seven tiny homes for formerly incarcerated women and gender-expansive people.
• In 2019, Deb, a former Benevolence Farm resident, proposed a place where people leaving the shared farmhouse could practise independent living alongside supportive neighbours.
• The organisation is building the homes on its property in Graham, giving residents individual spaces and a community around them with supportive peers.
