The Homeless Plymouth Population


One of MIPC’s mission partners, Plymouth Housing, just send this information about the homeless Plymouth population in Seattle.

• The majority of residents become homeless due to a perfect storm of persona, medical and economic issues.
• In 2011 nearly 1,000 adults lived in 12 Plymouth owned and operated buildings in downtown Seattle.
• The majority of Plymouth residents struggle with one or more disabilities such as mental illness, chronic medical conditions, chemical dependency, HIV/AIDS, developmental disabilities, and post-traumatic stress disorder.
• It costs approximately $13,000 a year to provide a home to one Plymouth resident.
• There are 918 people on Plymouth’s waiting list.

Abundance Sunday Helps Refugees from World Relief

MIPC's Abundance Sunday clothing donations in 2011 have resulted in $3,370 of Goodwill vouchers for World Relief clients to use to purchase clothing and other basic needs at Goodwill. Thanks to all who have brought clothing on the first day of each month.

And prayers, too for Cal Uomoto, Executive Director of World Relief, and his family as Cal enters hospice care as no further medical treatment is available to reverse the course of his illness.
