Housing & Shelter
Everyone deserves to have a safe place to sleep at night. We promote shelter and stability by providing quality resources and referrals, mediating between landlords and tenants, and housing women and children in a continuum of care.
Our Programs
Our Housing programs include a wide variety of services to fit your needs.
During winter, we offer Cold Weather Shelters from Nov 1-March 15, when temperatures are forecasted to be 34° or below. Check back on Nov 1 for more information.
Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions about our programs!

Coordinated Entry
Coordinated Entry is a process for individuals and families in Skagit County who are experiencing or at imminent risk of homelessness to access homelessness prevention services and resources. Applicants will be screened for eligibility, prioritization, and program matching for a more efficient and effective system to access appropriate programs.
To find out if you qualify for Coordinated Entry, dial 2-1-1 Monday through Friday, 9am-4pm and connect with a Referral Specialist.
Rapid Rehousing
Rapid Rehousing (“RRH”) is offered on a limited basis in coordination with Snohomish County and is subject to available funding. RRH provides short-term rental assistance to help people obtain housing quickly, increase self-sufficiency, and stay housed. Resources and services provided are typically tailored to the needs of the individual.
