"I feel like the care I get here gives me hope. I feel like I'm viewed as a whole person. I am not a statistic, I am not a condition, I am not an ailment to be fixed. I am a whole person."
– Unity Care NW patient

For Martha, good care means being seen and heard, not reduced to a diagnosis. Thank you, Puget Sound Energy, for being a Health Care Champion Sponsor and part of Healthcare for Everyone. Your support helps us offer that kind of care, and the hope that comes with it, to every patient who walks through our doors.

Thirty years.

That's how much shorter a life can be without stable housing.

Almost two years ago, The Way Station Health & Hygiene Center opened with the intention of closing that gap. Showers, laundry, walk-in medical and mental health care, and respite beds for people recovering from a medical event, all in one place, aimed at interrupting the cycles that shorten lives.

Now, the site is serving more than 350 people experiencing homelessness every month.

"You can never put enough books in the hands of enough children." — Dolly Parton

Thanks to United Way of Whatcom County, Unity Care NW is carrying Dolly’s legacy forward as an official Imagination Library site, helping to deliver free, age-appropriate books to kids under 5.

Families can sign up in our lobbies for a monthly delivery of stories to little hands across the county.

The Way Station Health & Hygiene Center has been there for people experiencing homelessness in more ways than one. The trust built between the center's staff and the people it serves has given visitors the opportunity to take a hot shower, get connected to stable housing, and be seen for life-changing medical care — all while waiting for their clothes to dry.

“I just want to make things better for people experiencing homelessness. I know the only difference between me and them is that I have a safety net."

Meet the teams making our work at The Way Station possible and learn more about how you can get involved at the link below.

The Way Station opened in late 2024 after seven years of planning and pandemic-related delays. This one-of-a-kind facility is the result of a collaboration between local community health center Unity Care NW, nonprofit community action agency Opportunity Council, PeaceHealth, and Whatcom County.
