With community support, we build affordable homes and open the door to stability, helping families put down lasting roots.
Why it Matters
Families are Struggling
In the Mead School District alone, 500 students are experiencing homelessness this school year.
The Need is Overwhelming
Over the next two decades, Spokane County must build 71,000 new homes- including 38,000 for very low income households.
Cost of Living is Skyrocketing
In North Spokane County, rental costs have risen 70% - 300% since 2020, putting safe, stable housing out of reach for many working families.
Spokane is in the midst of a housing crisis, and there's no clear plan to solve it. Village Cohousing Works is stepping into the gap- harnessing the power of community to change lives, one affordable house at a time.
At Village Cohousing Works, we believe everyone deserves the chance to feel safe, supported, and rooted in community. With support from donors, we build affordable, energy-efficient homes and sell them at cost to low-income families in North Spokane. Together, we’re creating not just houses, but stronger, more resilient communities where everyone has the chance to thrive.
We’re helping families put down roots in Takesa Village Homeowners Cooperative, a resident-owned community in Mead, WA. Here, low-income families have a rare chance to own their homes, build equity, and belong- all within a stable, caring neighborhood free from the uncertainty of rising rents.
