KentHOPE is a ministry of Seattle’s Union Gospel Mission, bringing together local non-profits, volunteers, neighbors, businesses, and churches in a community approach to reducing homelessness in Kent. By providing women and their children with emergency meals, shelter, and support services, KentHOPE provides a stable pathway out of homelessness.
Please, give generously today to help homeless women and their children find lasting hope and a new life.
Our Day Centerhosts women – with or without children – to meet their immediate needs. The Day Center is on the front lines of homelessness in Kent, and the first point of interaction for guests walking in off the streets. We welcome women into a warm, safe, loving environment, and support guests by building relationships and providing services including:
Direct intake into shelter services
Clothing, shoes, and hygiene items
Meals and snacks
Case management to address barriers that lead to homelessness
Referral and resource assistance
Housing application and job readiness assistance
Mail service, bus tickets, phone and computer access
Bible studies, devotions, and weekly classes
Access to medical and mental health providers
