Casa MiA 2026
Permanent Low-Income Housing for Survivors of Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault
The why:
One of the reasons that keeps people trapped in an abusive relationship, especially if children and financial abuse are involved, is lack of low-income housing.
-
Spokane County has the highest domestic violence rate in Washington State, approximately 80% higher (WA DSHS, 2022).
-
One of the leading causes of homelessness is domestic violence (National Alliance to End Homelessness, 2023).
-
Casa MiA will help address the homelessness and domestic violence crisis in Spokane.
The project
Casa MiA will provide culturally appropriate supportive housing to survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault who are homeless (or at risk of becoming homeless) at or below 50% to 30% of the area median income. Services provided to families include safety planning, crisis intervention, advocacy-based counseling, legal and medical advocacy, employment support, access to mental health services, information, referrals, and case management.
