Harbor Hope Center Housing Services

Harbor Hope Center provides housing programs for young adults ages 18–24: two emergency shelters, a transitional housing facility, and a rapid re-housing facility. We break the cycle of young adult homelessness by combining safe housing with comprehensive wraparound services. Each young adult receives individualized case management, life-skills development, mentoring, and access to physical, mental health, and substance use supports. By offering both stability and a pathway forward, we help young adults build lasting independence.

Emergency Young Adult Shelters - Gig Harbor

Immediate shelter for young adults experiencing homelessness, with stays up to 90 days. Supports include food, clothing assistance, case management, life-skills coaching, and mentoring when requested.

Rapid Re-Housing (RRH) - Tacoma

Rapid Re-Housing helps young adults quickly secure permanent housing and build a rental history. The program provides short-to medium-term rental assistance and personalized case management to support long-term housing stability.
