The American Tiny House Association recently elected its newest board of directors.
Below you can meet the folks who will be championing tiny house living on a national scale.
Founded in 2015, American Tiny House Association is the premier organization dedicated to ensuring tiny houses are accepted as viable dwelling units. Members advocate locally and nationally, providing education and support to enthusiasts, municipalities, key housing organizations, builders and other professionals to help people to legally live tiny. Benefits of membership include access to resources, solutions to building and zoning codes, connections with city planning and construction experts, and the tools to engage with local governments.

Glad to see someone is try to get TH to be accept all over. But in my exp I have the same people try to tell you how to live! I build my TH as what is in my head. I change it at will. I am small person living in a big world. I do not want someone to tell me that my TH s are eyesore because it only has so many windows. If I want to meet the standards that everyone live by I would have built it different.
We are working on a pilot for a TV show about the new way Americans are traveling and living since COVID. Our goal right now is to speak to a tiny home company that would like to get involved with us to make the show happen. The company would be the featured company in the entire season, and we are being told we are working on 2 seasons (2 years) of monthly episodes, plus all the social media exposure (Instagram, FB, YouTube, Twitter, LinkedIn, TikTok). It is a great opportunity for the right company to join us in an educational, informational and entertaining type of show that follows a couple for 2 years as they live in a tiny home and tour the country, interviewing others who are part of the tiny house movement. We can talk in more detail in person. Email us at [email protected] with a good time for us to speak. We are already in talks with a studio that is very interested, and a marketing company that will work on sponsors (NO OTHER TINY HOME COMPANY) for the show. Again, the tiny home company that signs on will have an exclusive deal with the show for 2 years. Let’s talk about it.
