Project Description

Tacoma Community House is a vital resource for immigrants, refugees and other community members who seek self-sufficiency, enrichment and pathways to become contributing members of our community. Embracing the American Promise: Uniting Communities Campaign is a $13.7 million initiative supported by a variety of public/private funding sources to construct a new 27,000 sq. ft. facility, which will include versatile classrooms, confidential meeting spaces, and a community gathering area.Tacoma Community House (TCH) serves over 3,500 people each year, primarily immigrants and refugees, promoting self-sufficiency through its four core programs: education, employment assistance, immigration services, and legal advocacy for victims of crime and abuse. NFF is participating in a larger financing package to fund construction of a new building that will double TCH’s space, from 14,000 to 27,000 sq. ft., allowing the organization to serve 6,000 clients each year by 2025.
