Community Services/Non-Profits in Kent, WA

“I love to coming in to Federal Way Meditation, incredibly thoughtful helpers and positive vibes. Since I practicing meditation, it’s been a huge blessing in my life. It has expanded my perspective view and become awareness of the universe. I highly recommend this method of meditation to experience the peace and joy of the true life.”

“Such a Beautiful building! Real wood floors. Even the ceiling was wood.
Beautiful exterior, interior, and Ambience.
Such an exquisite experience for my First Quinceanera!
The Joy, Love and Friendliness in the room with the Kind neighbor's and friend's.... my Heart is still full!!
I'm not sure how you go about renting(?)
Maybe you'd have to have Served?
It's a bit hard to find. Right across the street from my old High School was quite exciting.
The bathrooms are clean. Well maintained for an older building. I do wish we could use paper towels again though. It's difficult to wipe down the sink and counters with wet hands?”

“This place has been a rock for my little family. When my husband really needed someone/someplace to put his trust, the supportive members of SEF and the SEF Blue House was/are there. The members are all friendly and involved with the program. They help plan trips/activities, they take turns running meetings, they make donations and keep the property clean. There is always something to do and someone to listen. You are valued and needed. We look forward to seeing you.”

“We have adopted two cats from RASKC. Both have been great experiences. There is a waitlist system so the cattery is never too crowded. They will take your number and text you when it's your time to come meet the cats. The staff and volunteers are so friendly and helpful, and give you time and space to meet all the kitties and make your decision. They go over all the paperwork and medical records with you, and give a small supply of food, a toy or two, and a blanket to go home with your new cat. Our first cat adopted here is a special needs boy and they gave us all the info we needed to feel confident and supported in adopting him. And four years in, no serious issues! When adopting our second, they gave us a lot of good info on managing introductions, as well as advice on a quarantine to keep our older boy safe and healthy. They give so much info about each kitty and great recommendations on cats you should meet based on your own situation. We love RASKC!”

“CCS. What can I say about CCS? This is probably a small, insignificant thing, but this place came to my rescue during the absolute lowest, down-and-out period of my entire life. If you happen to be a bit curious, itching to know, and I'm not ashamed to share this, I became unsheltered for several months.

I had only moved to WA just a few short months prior and circumstances that were not caused by me being neglectful to priorities, nor by me being addicted to substances. Because of a little typo somewhere in some office by someone unknown, the benefits I had worked so hard for many years to get had been cut off in error, leaving me completely broke and unable to pay necessary bills as I had always done. Rent being one of the things I no longer could afford, so home became wherever I parked my car.

Had it not been for an attentive, extremely caring and helpful Kent police officer, I may not have ever heard of CCS, but he saw me early one morning and asked if I was ok. I told him my situation, and he quickly pointed me towards CCS for help. And help is what they did.

First, a nightly church shelter. For 2 months, that's where i stayed while still waiting for the error to be fixed. Next, COVID came and CCS shipped us guys to a hotel in SeaTac. For just shy of a year CCS provided hotel stay until their Rapid Re-Housing came to up the help ante. They helped me get my life back by helping me get an apartment. That was 4 years ago, and I'm still in that new apartment.

Not just housing, but CCS is still helping me today through their CReW Counseling service. Being homeless was very traumatic for me, compounded by other mental health issues, I'm being responsible by taking care of my mental health and CCS assists me in maintaining my sanity and I'm living an active life that could've easily ended tragically. So THANK YOU, CCS!!!”
