Neighborhood Development

This collaborative project initiated by the White Center Neighborhood Advisory Council, aiming to establish a haven embodying "Hope, Unity, and Belonging." It aspires to provide affordable housing and crucial services, fostering stability and opportunity for local working families. This initiative pays homage to the ancestral lands of the Salish peoples while emphasizing a collective engagement in this meaningful conversation within these sacred homelands.
