Our Refugees Northwest Foster Care, Lutheran Community Services NW program is seeking licensed foster parents and affordable rooms to rent (host homes) for refugee and immigrant teenagers in King County, south Snohomish County, and north Pierce County.

Through our Unaccompanied Refugee Minor (URM) program, young people receive safe housing, caring support, and resources to help them build a future. By opening your home, you can help a young person feel welcomed, supported, and connected to their community.

💙 Curious about becoming a foster parent or host home provider? We offer virtual information sessions to explain the program, the support available, and how to get started.

If someone you know may be impacted, please share this information with them. Together, we can help connect our communities with the resources they need. 💙

⚠️ Apple Health changes may affect some refugees, asylees and other immigrants in Washington State.

Beginning October 1, 2026, changes to Apple Health may affect your coverage. If you received a notice that your Apple Health is ending, don’t ignore it.

You may still qualify for other health coverage or assistance programs — but losing Apple Health does not automatically mean you qualify for another free health insurance program. Every person’s situation is different.
💙 We can help! Meet with our Health Plan Navigator to learn about your options.
