Living Well Around Puget Sound
http://www.livingwellseattle.blogspot.com
My family has provided housing for people around Puget Sound for many years. Working with folks as they navigate the twists and turns of their lives has taught us the true meaning of community.
Over the last several months, I've seen firsthand the effects of our nation's economic crisis on the lives of many in our community. So, I am grateful for the opportunity to do what I can to help by sharing information with my neighbors - folks that live in the region.
