About Together Center & the Campaign
Together Center envisions a healthy, housed and thriving community where people easily access a range of compassionate supports in one location. Together Center makes lives better by helping people find the assistance they need. We do this by co-locating a large array of human service programs and affordable housing on one campus and connecting people to these and other resources. We build a collaborative and knowledgeable association of service providers working together to empower people and our communities.
Together Center is leveraging its land equity and partnerships by joining with affordable housing developers to create a campus for whole-person health, housing and human services on our existing site in Redmond, WA. The new campus will include an expanded Together Center with 49,000 sq ft of space for modern, welcoming spaces for community members and human service providers; and add 80 units of housing dedicated to people making 30-50% of the Area Median Income; 200 units of housing dedicated to people making 50-60% of the Area Median Income; and an underground parking facility.
We’re launching Together Strong: The Campaign to Transform Together Center with a goal of raising $7M by the end of 2023. With the money raised through this campaign, we’ll fuel the total transformation of our aging space and create a modern, efficient, and integrated facility designed to improve housing stability, promote personal agency, elevate health equity, and deliver essential whole-person support across our community.
