Seattle ranks third largest homeless population in the United States
Nationally, families with children experiencing homelessness are the fastest growing and least visible segment of the homeless population. Many parents are living only one paycheck away from homelessness.To make matters worse, 1 in 3 families are struggling to provide the basics for their children. Join our mission to change that.
How do we tackle the basic needs gap?
Babies of Homelessness is a non-profit organization, a crisis response team, delivering basic necessities to families with children experiencing homelessness in the Puget Sound. Our goal is to remove the stigma “homelessness” carries, by shedding light on the hardest-to-reach and least visible segment of the homeless population.
While Seattle tackles homelessness at nearly every level, our approach is simple. We focus on something as fundamental as basic needs, but in many ways, we are creating a new beginning for the families we serve.
No red tape. No bureaucracy. The child’s basic needs are always a priority.
Meet our Team
Aside from one paid staff, our mission is operated by a team of volunteers. Individuals with full-time jobs, families and lives—yet they go above and beyond to serve a 24/7 mission. Get to know some of them here:
