Brand New "Together Young People Emerge"

12/31/2025

With heavy hearts, we share that Brand New will be closing its operations.

Over the years, it has been an honor and a privilege to serve the youth and young adults of Tacoma. Walking alongside so many incredible individuals and families has shaped who we are, and we are deeply grateful for the trust, relationships, and moments we’ve shared within this community.

This transition is both bittersweet. While we grieve the closing of this chapter, we remain steadfast in our commitment to youth and young adults. Our mission is not ending—it is evolving. We are moving in an innovative direction that allows us to continue supporting and empowering youth and young adults beyond housing services.

Thank you to everyone who has supported, partnered with, and believed in Brand New throughout the years. Your impact will continue to ripple forward as we step into what’s next.

With gratitude and hope for the future.

Morgan Smith
CEO and Founder of Brand New "Together Young People Emerge"

Hey Family and Friends-- I normally don't post personal business on FB but my heart is aching with Jennifer's husband, family and friends.

Robert lost his wife last Monday and is now a single father taking care of their 3 Kids. He is an extremely hard working man who has to take time off, address his mental health and now show up for his family.

If anyone has any way to support this wonderful family please let me know.

Dear friends, family, and compassionate supporters, On August 5th,… Katera Morrow needs your support for Celebrating Jennifer’s Life And Raising Awareness
