Consultation has concluded

(External link)Some groups of people are especially vulnerable to homelessness, and need specific(External link) supports that go along with housing

Our 2017-2023 Consolidated Plan included a special needs assessment for the elderly population, disabled population, victims of domestic violence, persons with behavioral health needs (including substance use disorder), and single-parent families. 

Over the coming months, we will be looking at how these needs have grown and/or changed. The good news is that the City of Bellingham, with the help of our non-profit partners, is continuing to add more housing to address these specific and growing needs. The map to the right shows all of the current and upcoming (in green) affordable and special needs projects in Bellingham. The size of the dots correspond to the number of units in each building.

By clicking on the map, you can go to an interactive web page where you can learn more about each of these projects (scroll down to Housing Projects).
