Casa Kino is an affordable housing development for agricultural worker families focused on creating safe and abundant areas for children to gather and play. The project includes a community building with a computer lab, laundry facilities, offices and a community gathering room for CCHS to run programs such as "Play and Learn" for parents and children on site. The housing units will save about 50% of the energy usage typical of standard construction. This is accomplished by utilizing Structural Insulated Panels for exterior walls, extensive ceiling/roof insulation, low-e windows and advanced sealing techniques. Water usage will likewise be greatly reduced by more than half that of standard construction through low-flow fixtures and extensive xeriscaping landscaping.
