Whole-person care for women and children

Physical, mental, emotional and spiritual. We meet the whole person, because fixing one piece and ignoring the rest does not last.

Esther's Place

A day resource center for women and children, and a safe place for homeless women to be during the day as they connect to community, resources and housing. Women come in for meals, clean clothes, hygiene supplies and help taking the next step.

Each week brings groups like Judy's "Beauty from Ashes, Strength from Hope" teaching, a no-judgment community circle, and gardening with Sandra. Every Tuesday, the Shower to the People trailer offers hot showers, towels and hygiene supplies.

At South Everett Community Church, 1 W Casino Road, Everett, WA 98204 · Monday to Friday, 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. · Showers Tuesdays, 11:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.

Queen It's a New Day

Twice a year, community members give women the royal treatment: an image makeover, a complete work outfit, a makeup consult and manicure, plus training in computers, interviewing and communication. Each woman walks the stage, receives her crown, and declares her new day.

More than 1,700 women completed Queen as of 2020.
