The primary mission of WAQRR is to promote the establishment, successful management and growth of high quality community based recovery residences in Washington State.
Washington Alliance for Quality Recovery Residences centers its grantmaking on recovery residences in Washington State, backing both the establishment and day-to-day operation of housing for people in substance use recovery. Recent awards show a strong preference for providers that already operate on the ground, with several large grants directed to housing organizations in communities across the state. The largest recent grant listed is $476,459 to Trinity Transitional Housing in Cle Elum, followed by $473,418 to Elijah Family Homes in Kennewick. Those awards sit alongside additional support for recovery housing providers in places such as Milton, Shelton, Cheney, and Silverdale. The foundation’s stated mission is to promote the establishment, successful management, and growth of high-quality community-based recovery residences. Its program structure reflects that mission: funding is tied to recovery housing, accreditation, provider training and development, technical assistance, and operating support. Recent grant descriptions also show that the foundation funds residential housing costs and allowable operating expenses, indicating a practical approach to sustaining staffed residences rather than one-time project activity alone. Giving remains tightly focused on the state’s recovery housing ecosystem, with nearly all grants landing in Washington.
In recovery housing, Washington Alliance for Quality Recovery Residences supports both operators and individual residences. Trinity Transitional Housing received $199,346 for Residential Housing Costs, and Shelton Housing First LLC received $299,662, showing support for housing operations as well as program activity. The foundation also funds residences that appear to be building or maintaining capacity. Eagle's Wings Coordinated Care in Silverdale received $160,165 for Residential Housing Costs, while OUR Passion in Yakima received $140,120 for Residential Housing Costs. These awards point to an emphasis on keeping staffed recovery homes functioning. Provider development and quality standards also sit inside the grantmaking pattern. Awards to organizations such as Yakima Valley Recovery in Wapato and Value Based Solution in Everett align with the stated focus on accreditation, technical assistance, and development for recovery residence providers.
