Living Room Session#2: Introduction to Passive Homes. Rebuild Safer, Healthier, & Fire-Resilient Homes.

This event is a great way to learn about passive home design, including how these homes are built, what makes them energy-efficient and comfortable, and their costs.

These virtual living room events are for people who’ve lost their homes, their loved ones, or neighbors, and want to learn about better home designs, prefab options, and what we’ve learned from other fire rebuilds. We hope to share good building options, clear processes, and support during this tough time" for "These community events are virtual living room sessions for those who lost their homes, friends, neighbors, and family members who want to learn more about performance homes, the Passive House approach, home plans, prefab, and lessons from our other fire rebuild projects.  We hope to offer some options for green building, process clarity, and compassion in a harrowing time.

As professionals, this is a forum to offer information from REAL people working in the fire rebuild area to help families navigate design, construction, and building options.
