- Join my lovely fiance Rebecca and I as we tour Community First Viilage with the community's founder Alan Graham.
Community First! Village is a 51-acre master planned community that provides affordable, permanent housing and a supportive community for men and women coming out of chronic homelessness.

Alan will be presenting on Saturday May 14th at the Exit and Build Land Summit II in Bastrop, TX.
Watch for FREE online or better yet, join us in person!!! More info here - exitandbuildla...
What a great and very wise man Mr. Graham is. I can sit and listen to him drop pearls of wisdom for hours without ever losing interest. I agree with Rebecca, Mr. Graham truly is a ROCK STAR!
I love this. Human dignity fully recognized here. I almost cried when the creator of this village said, " No other person has slept in the bed." That means everyone gets a new bed and a place decorated with the person's style. So so personal and beautiful!
I never realized how cool this place was. I drive by it all the time.
God bless you a hundredfold Alan Graham. You are blessed to be a blessing! The Lord Jesus is good & His mercy endures forever. Thank you John Bush for featuring this great, transformative video. Love to be part of this Good Samaritans community.
Excellent interview and tour!! What an accomplishment Mr Graham! Bravo! May your Community First (human to human and heart to heart) model keep replicating worldwide! ❤
Very impressive. I have been watching thousands of you tube videos about homelessness and this is the very best setup to be seen .Thank God for people like Allan Graham and his team workers. God bless you and wishing you an excellent future.
They've got some food production there, but if they had a food Forest designed for them, that would be even better for this community. I like what I see here
I love this man's vision and the best thing is people from other cities are coming to him to learn how to do this in their city.
Amazing concept, Amazing man! Heard about him on JRE.
Wood shop and forge were great, but now defunct! I'd love to see those return as programs to CFV! T shirt printing operations could use some modern shirt printing equipment donated! Micro enterprise program of t Shirt production is a great idea in concept,otherwise! I see this as a very helpful program( if some monies can be generated to invest in a modern production shop!) Allens view is, find me the folks and recources,.and I am a hundred percent in! Any artists, or those with sublimation experience or machine embroidery, are encouraged to chat with him or the Art house manager, about revamping that program! Lee Grimes,(first resident of the village!)
Absolutely incredible. Wooow!!
They really think through everything for people who are living there. Amazing community 💕💕
This is such a wonderful video and tour of the village.
I was saddened to see that this video only has 1,727 views. It needs to have millions of views!
Simply awesome 👍🙏
So inspiring, thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Love you family you hit the assignment out of the ballpark amazing work and it is just the start and they said getting homeless people into communities was impossible it’s not love you all have a wonderful amazing day
Incredible!!!
The importance of fincially ridding at church on sunday when in attendance , if given the opportunity to attend: the many other personal benifits for not only showing-up ,but that of doing something worth while of one's self & money
What a NOBLE endeavor!!!!! ❤️🙏❤️

...be the change you want to see...
I love this concept! Would love to see this happening in all states in America, including Alaska, Puerto Rico, & Hawai'i
To me to be even more cost effective, would be to have a central kitchen bathroom living room area around private bedrooms. Messy people should not get a pass, they should be required to help with upkeep. It would be more cost effective than having each unit have its own kitchen and bathroom.
That's what it is! There are centralized kitchens and bathrooms
I’m so very very happy hat there are people who want to change the stigma around homelessness good on you for doing this I sing in a choir in Fremantle Western Australia in Australia I’ve been homeless but now I’m singing for the homeless people not just herein Fremantle but the whole world
I think Community First is a fantastic and inspirational idea and I'm so glad its working and to hear the idea is spreading is awesome. I wish it would spread as far as Australia as we desperately need help for our homeless and even low income families and what the govt is doing just isn't working as far as I can see. Congratulations on bringing this to UA-cam so it can be seen by everybody. I am not a religious person but that doesn't mean I cant feel empathy for those in need and I am glad they are getting assistance with dignity and respect. Thanks to Alan great job and thanks to you too John. I wish the whole project all the best for the future and I hope it spreads world wide.
I'm not homeless, but it sure is a wonderful place to live.
16:35 in Panamà people sale street food or ice cream from carts with stoves or refrigerator carts:) People also make or repair things:) In USA everything is so regulated why bother:(
Also family structure is stronger
