Created by Catholic Community Services in 2007 to reduce homelessness, Drexel House is the first and only facility in Washington State that combines emergency shelter, transitional and permanent housing at one location.
In July of 2017, the long-time dream to build more housing for homeless veterans was realized when construction of Drexel House II Veterans Housing was completed. Drexel House II provides added 50 additional permanent supportive housing units for veterans.

Drexel House Details
- 8 bedroom units.
- Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC)
Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC)
Since this property has received funding in part through the Low Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) program, a certain number of units are set aside for lower income households. Households must earn either less than 50% or 60% of the area median income (depending on the set-aside option chosen by the property owner) to qualify for these units. Rents in these units are capped at a maximum of 30% of the set-aside area median income (adjusted for unit size). Some rental units in this property may not be subject to LIHTC and therefore have higher rents and no maximum household income requirement.
