The Walla Walla Homeless Coalition is comprised of community and agency
representatives who provide shelter, housing, and/or support services to
families and individuals who are homeless. Participants include: Blue Mountain
Action Council; Helpline; Walla Walla County Department of Human Services; City
of Walla Walla Housing Authority; VA Medical Center; Walla Walla County Housing
Authority; St. Vincent de Paul; DSHS/Community Service Office; the Christian Aid
Center; the YWCA; Valley Residential Services; Inland Counseling Network; and
Children’s Home Society of Washington. The coalition has been in existence since
1982.
The coalition has two primary purposes:
-
to network and coordinate
with other providers and thereby maintain a continuum of care plan for the
homeless in our communities;
-
to identify, strategize
and mobilize ourselves to fill any gaps in our continuum of care system.
If you are homeless or at risk
of homelessness, please contact Helpline at (509) 529-3377 or e-mail them at: mjtownsend@helplineww.org.
