Transitional Housing gives residents an opportunity to save money for permanent housing and get back on their feet. Many of their transitional housing properties offer a variety of essential supportive services, such as housing counseling, employment assistance, computer access and drug and alcohol recovery support.


Mission Statement: Rooted in Catholic Social Teaching and the Gospel imperative, Catholic Community Services and Catholic Housing Services are outreaches of the Catholic Church in Western Washington, under the leadership of the Archbishop of Seattle and the Boards of Trustees. CCS and CHS answer the Gospel call to loving and compassionate service with particular concern for the sanctity of human life from conception to natural death and the dignity of the human person. Our employees and volunteers come from many faith traditions to serve and support poor and vulnerable people through the provision of quality, integrated services and housing. Our focus is on those individuals, children, families, and communities struggling with poverty and the effects of intolerance and racism. We actively join with others to work for justice.

The woman I have bee renting a room to for the last three years has made it untenable for her to stay. I do not want to throw her out onto the street. So I am hoping that you might be able to take her in. Please let me know if you have vacancies, and what your requirements for acceptance are. Thank you. Kathryn
