I gave a little of my backyard and it opened a much bigger world.

 

We do so much more than build homes for those living outside.

We build fully equipped, healthy homes for people experiencing homelessness. BLOCK Homes are permitted and placed in homeowners' backyards throughout Seattle. This model gives residents a place to call home and our communities around the city an opportunity to make a real difference in supporting our unhoused neighbors and addressing the issue of homelessness together.

HOSTING

We offer homeowners a program to host someone experiencing homelessness by simply donating a portion of their backyard and welcoming a new neighbor. Meet our hosts!

SUSTAINABILITY

We build healthy homes to support wellness for our residents, while positively impacting people, planet, and future generations. Learn more about our healthy building practices.

PARTNERS

We involve businesses and individuals who want to support our mission through their unique skills, passions, and resources. Meet our team of partners.

VOLUNTEER

We are community powered! Homes are built and backyards landscaped by a network of volunteers and skilled professionals. Volunteer with us!

SOCIAL SERVICES

We partner with social service agencies for referrals to thoughtfully match hosts and formerly homeless residents. Check out our resident FAQs.

RELATIONSHIPS

We maintain relationships and provide ongoing support to hosts, neighbors, and residents to bring all of us closer to each other. Learn more about Facing Homelessness.
