Rebuild Ready
Prefab education, trusted builder connections, and practical resources.
Rebuild Ready partners with Friends of Prefab, a volunteer network of architects, engineers, and builders who share their knowledge in a supportive, pressure-free environment so families can make informed choices when they are ready.
what we do
Education – Workshops and events that simplify the rebuilding process.
Prefab Access – Partnerships that make prefab homes more affordable and practical.
Connection – Bringing together survivors, builders, and policymakers to remove barriers and spark solutions.
why prefab
Prefab and modular homes offer a faster, more cost-effective, and sustainable path to rebuilding. Our Friends of Prefab volunteers help survivors explore suitable prefab builders and navigate options that meet California codes and budgets.
