On October 16th, Seattle City Council hosted the first of two public hearings on Mayor Bruce Harrell’s proposed 2025 budget. LIHI staff and Tiny House Village clients testified at the public hearing to advocate that the City Council provide funding for two new Tiny House Villages.
A LIHI staff member with lived experience of homelessness shared: “I wish Tiny House Villages existed when I was on the streets. I have helped more than 30 people secure permanent housing through this program at just one village. Think of how many more people we could help with two more.”
A former Tiny House Village client said: “My family fell on hard times. We lost everything. Then the doctors found a brain tumor. I never thought it would be me. I owe my second chance to LIHI.”
“A few months ago, Councilmember Hollingsworth came to LIHI's opening of our new permanent supportive housing building, Good Shepherd House. What I remember the most is her and the congregation spontaneously singing “We’ve Come This Far By Faith.” Please do not let us lose faith in the Council. Please protect and expand affordable housing, shelters, and supportive services,” said Tan Macaraeg.

We Need Your Help! Ask your City Council for 2 new villages!
Despite a 27% increase in the number of unsheltered homeless people, the Mayor's proposed 2025 budget did not include funds for any additional Tiny House Villages or shelters. Tiny House Villages are the quickest, cheapest and most effective way to move people off the streets, out of tents, out of the cold and into warm, safe, supportive shelters. LIHI's Tiny House Village program is very effective at moving clients from shelter into permanent housing. Please see info sheet on 2023 outcomes below.
The time is NOW: please let your Seattle City Council know that you support funding for 2 more villages in 2025. This will provide 100 more shelter spots and help hundreds of homeless people over the course of a year. Email all Council members today and Monday at: council@seattle.gov
Ask a homeless person where they would like to shelter and almost every time they will pick a tiny house. Having one's own lockable space is critical for dignity, mental health, and safety. Ask your friends and colleagues to request 2 more tiny house villages.
9,810 people are living unsheltered! 421 homless people died in 2023!
According the King County Regional Homelessness Authority's Point in Time count (PIT), over 16,000 people were homeless in 2024, with 60% of those (9,810) living unsheltered. This is a 27.7% increase in the number of unsheltered homeless people.
421 homeless people died in Seattle in 2023, the most ever, an increase of 36% from 2022.
Tiny House Villages provide a vital solution to Seattle’s homelessness crisis, offering safety, stability, and a path to permanent housing. With homelessness on the rise, expanding this program is more important than ever. Urging the City Council to fund two more villages in 2025 can make a real difference in countless lives. Now is the time to take action! https://hesaplio.github.io/yuzde-hesaplama/
It's great to see funding for more tiny houses! Hopefully, they can find an affordable contractor with a solid track record who can deliver quality interiors, exteriors, and polished concrete services Naples.
