California's community college students have limited housing options. When considering student housing, institutions of higher education must assess the need for funding, land availability, policy, zoning ordinances, nimbyism, liability, management, and student safety. Affordable housing, student housing, safe parking lots, and tiny homes are strategies that could offer potential solutions to the housing insecurity crisis community college students are facing. This study seeks to understand how tiny homes can provide safe, affordable, and sustainable residences for students in need. Due to limited information on tiny homes as an equitable design solution to community college student housing insecurity, non-random, expert sampling has been drawn from an institution already involved in this work to develop a qualitative case study. This analysis aims to examine how institutions of higher education are turning to tiny homes to address community college student housing insecurity. Findings from this study revealed steps for institutions to follow when developing a tiny home community for students and the impact these dwellings have had on student residents. Implications for community college student housing research, policy, and practice are also presented. [The dissertation citations contained here are published with the permission of ProQuest LLC.
