Butterfly Gardens
Butterfly Gardens is the first ever permanent, supportive housing development in Clovis, California. Based on a nationally-proven model, the 75-unit development prioritizes robust social services and a high-quality living environment for vulnerable residents, including individuals with disabilities and at-risk of homelessness. The property features 24-hour live-in support staff who provide access to job training, mental health services, and work collaboratively with local agencies to ensure a healthy and safe community for both residents and neighbors. With the foundation of secure housing, Butterfly Gardens will offer a space where Clovis residents can flourish.
Butterfly Gardens will be a gold-certified GreenPoint Rated project. Throughout the design, construction, and maintenance of the project, deliberate choices were made to make the building more energy-efficient, environmentally friendly, and healthier for future residents. These choices included installing Energy Star appliances, environmentally friendly building products from paint to flooring, and planting native, drought-tolerant species. Butterfly Gardens is also located near a major transit stop, within walking distance to a variety of community resources, and has a number of outdoor gathering spaces for residents to encourage a healthier lifestyle. Together, these design and maintenance elements make for a greener building and a healthier community.
