ADVANCING HOUSING SOLUTIONS ACROSS PIERCE COUNTY
Join us for Affordable Housing Week 2025, May 5–9, as we spotlight the housing solutions our community needs across the full continuum—from emergency shelter to homeownership. This year’s theme challenges us to expand our understanding of what “home” means and recognize the diverse paths people take to get there. Through panels, tours, storytelling, and community events, we’ll explore how we can create a Pierce County where everyone has a safe, stable place to call home.
There are several ways to get involved: purchase tickets to our signature Networking Reception on May 8 at West of the Waterway, become a sponsor to help us expand our impact and elevate the conversation, or submit an event to be featured on the official Affordable Housing Week calendar.

An Affordable Housing Quest
Dive into the world of housing development with our new interactive game, designed to give you a hands-on understanding of what it takes to build affordable housing. Created by the Tacoma-Pierce County Affordable Housing Consortium in partnership with Joshua Jorgensen and Danny Fisher-Bruns, and sponsored by Tacoma Housing Authority, this game is not just fun but also an enlightening educational tool.
