RESIDENTS

Living as Part of an ECAHLI Community

HOUSING AS INFRASTRUCTURE

ECAHLI is designed for people who are ready to rebuild their lives within a structured, purpose-driven community.

Residency at ECAHLI is not passive housing.
It is participation, responsibility, and contribution.

Who Can Become a Resident

ECAHLI welcomes individuals and families who are:

  • Seeking long-term stability and purpose
  • Willing to contribute through work, skills, or learning
  • Open to living within a shared community structure
  • Respectful of others and the environment
  • Committed to personal responsibility and growth

Background, nationality, and past circumstances are not disqualifiers.
Commitment and conduct are what matter.

Residency Is Not Charity

ECAHLI does not operate as a shelter or aid camp.

Residents are:

  • Contributors, not beneficiaries
