Mission Statement
To create stable, vibrant and healthy communities by developing, financing and operating affordable, program-enriched housing for families, seniors and people with special needs who lack the economic resources to access quality, safe housing opportunities.
Description
Mercy Housing is working to create a more humane world where poverty is alleviated, communities are healthy and all people can develop their full potential.
We believe that affordable housing and supportive programs improve the economic status of residents, transform neighborhoods and stabilize lives. Mercy Housing has developed and currently owns 46 properties (1,818 rental homes) throughout Washington, from Puget Sound cities like Bellingham, Everett, Lynnwood, Seattle, Kent, Tacoma and Olympia to central and eastern Washington towns like Yakima, Chelan and Cheney.
We utilize a Service-Enriched Housing model, to help families achieve stability and then to enhance that stability. We accomplish this through dedicated and highly-motivated staff, extensive community partnerships, and a focus on programs that contribute to resident success and outcomes that can be measured.
