History
Jubilee Women's Center opened its doors in 1983 to offer Seattle-area women experiencing poverty and homelessness an alternative to emergency shelters. Jubilee's longer-term housing program and on-site services gave women the time and support to stabilize, heal, and make positive life changes. Over the years Jubilee has expanded its work to give even more women the time to move past trauma and rebuild their lives so they can live successfully on their own. Today Jubilee annually serves about 76 women in the residential program and nearly 2,500 women through referrals, classes, the boutique, and computer lab.
Specialties

Additional services, available to all low-income women, include job and life skills training, computer lab, women's clothing boutique, and community referrals--all free of charge.
