Justice Housing Yakima
Ideally, everyone in our community would have access to safe and stable housing.
The reality, however, is that some of our most vulnerable neighbors struggle to find and maintain stable homes. In 2025, more than 600 people faced unsheltered homelessness in Yakima County.
Whatever led someone to become homeless is not what matters. What is important is that we, as a community, focus on and remain committed to enacting evidence-based solutions. Permanent Supportive Housing is proven to work, supported by data, backed by research, fiscally responsible and has a consistently positive track record. Most importantly, Permanent Supportive Housing prevents a return to homelessness.
Home isn't where you're from; it's where you find light when all grows dark.
Home is a foundation for growth. It is a basic human right and an essential first step in addressing other health needs.
Housing is at the core of everything. A safe, secure home is the place we go to reflect, unwind and feel grounded.
Justice Housing Yakima believes housing is a human right and should not be predicated on how much money is in one’s pocket. By building Permanent Supportive Housing, we offer an evidence-based and harm reduction solution to house chronically homeless individuals and help them heal from their trauma. Our mission is to develop projects that support our belief that all individuals, no matter their backgrounds or life circumstances, have the right to safe, affordable and permanent housing.

We empower individuals to rebuild their lives, improving their well-being, and unlocking opportunities for work and growth. In turn, our whole community becomes safer, stronger, and more vibrant, as the benefits of housing, respect, and connection enrich us all.
