About Homelessness

There are over 8,000 homeless men, women and children in King County. Every number is a real person. And every person has their reasons: domestic violence, mental illness, the economy or simply "my mommy brought me here."

Some are safe for the night in emergency shelters. Some are working their way toward self-sufficiency in transitional housing. Some sleep on the streets or in abandoned buildings, hungry, dirty, and in harm's way.

Whether or not they have roofs over their heads, these individuals call Seattle/King County their home just like the rest of us.
