Seattle in particular has a history of housing segregation, redlining, and systematically denying people of color access to safe and affordable homes. We cannot create stable communities through affordable housing without addressing racial justice. Housing justice is racial justice. We are committed to becoming an anti-racist organization and continuing to do the work to dismantle systemic and institutionalized racism.

About Us People Our Residents Strategic Plan Equity & Inclusion Funding Mission History Approach Future About Bellwether We create stable communities and access to opportunity through affordable housing. Mission Mission & Vision Bellwether Housing creates stable communities and access to opportunity through affordable housing. We develop and manage homes for people with limited incomes near job centers, transit, and services. We amplify our impact by helping other organizations in the Puget Sound region do the same. We envision diverse communities where people of all incomes and backgrounds share in the prosperity of our region. History Timeline History Bellwether Housing was founded in 1980 to create housing in downtown Seattle so city workers could live close to their jobs. After over 40 years of success and growth, Bellwether is the Puget Sound region's largest nonprofit affordable housing provider. Today Bellwether apartments are home to approximately 5,000 residents (and counting). Bellwether continues to lead the affordable housing industry in finding innovative ways to build strong, healthy communities within its own portfolio and on behalf of other nonprofit organizations. We have developed thousands of apartment homes and numerous community facilities as a development consultant for other nonprofits. Our Approach As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, Bellwether Housing builds and manages high quality affordable housing so that people of diverse backgrounds and incomes thrive in urban King County’s high-cost housing market. As the Puget Sound region’s largest nonprofit affordable housing provider, Bellwether Housing serves 5,000 residents annually in 3,000 apartments. Our 35 buildings (and counting!) are near workplaces, schools, childcare, and community amenities in vibrant, transit-rich neighborhoods. We serve families large and small, households recovering from homelessness, seniors, immigrants, preschool teachers and social workers, and young people just starting out. Living at Bellwether, residents gain access to the resources and prosperity of their surrounding communities and, in turn, cultivate a more inclusive and equitable city. To meet the intense need for affordable housing in the region, we plan to build and acquire more homes every year. Since 2016, Bellwether has targeted new development in neighborhoods that have incredible access to transit, public services such as libraries, parks, and excellent schools, and allow for strong ties to community supports such as YMCA’s, Boys & Girls Clubs, community centers, health care facilities and food banks. We have developed or are developing in Queen Anne, Roosevelt, the University District, First Hill, Bitter Lake and Rainier Beach. Bellwether’s resident are majority BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, People of Color), and our larger households with children are nearly 80% families of color. Low-income families have fewer housing options than any other population in Seattle. Since 2016, Bellwether has prioritized the development of 2-, 3- and 4-bedroom apartments to create as many options as possible for low-income families. Although these larger apartments are more challenging to develop and operate, Bellwether believes it is imperative that our community be a place in which lower income families – particularly BIPOC families - can thrive. Our apartment communities include resident amenity areas, such as community rooms, outdoor play spaces, gardens, and laundry; and attentive on-site management. Our on-site resident services program connects residents with the resources, services, benefits, and community relationships they need to thrive. Future Looking forward, Bellwether continues to integrate four decades of success with innovative and pioneering development approaches to make housing in our region more accessible, inclusive, and affordable to all. In the next five years, we plan to build or acquire new apartments, grow our organization to maintain and operate these new units, and continue to embed anti-racism into our organization's culture and work.
