Retreat Home is a network of people and homes offering hospitality to those in need of temporary housing. 

The Need

Washington State has the fifth-highest prevalence of homelessness in the United States, despite a strong state economy and growing incomes.

22,923 people are currently unhoused in Washington state, and that number includes 1,226 family households. Many of these families are in need of short-term, temporary housing that provides the time and safety to find a stable, long-term solution. 

The Response

Retreat Home meets the needs of the unhoused by providing short stay housing and structured support for families exiting homelessness, in addition to the practical need for housing. Retreat Home’s hosts and volunteers welcome guest families into their homes and their lives.
