The project’s twelve energy efficient homes were specially designed to meet the unique needs of elderly individuals. Also within the Trinity River Elders Village is a community building, containing a kitchen and a large common area, perfect for parties, card games and family gatherings. The high-tech houses, located in Hoopa, are equipped with leading edge safety features and several energy-saving components. The Elders Village sits within a gated cul-de-sac that has a great view of the local mountains. Well-lit, Americans with Disability Act-compliant sidewalks lead in loop to the community center, where YIHA will be offering monthly activities, such as exercise, art and gardening classes.

Since this property has received funding in part through the Low Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) program, a certain number of units are set aside for lower income households. Households must earn either less than 50% or 60% of the area median income (depending on the set-aside option chosen by the property owner) to qualify for these units. Rents in these units are capped at a maximum of 30% of the set-aside area median income (adjusted for unit size). Some rental units in this property may not be subject to LIHTC and therefore have higher rents and no maximum household income requirement.
