There are over 3,800 adult family homes across the state. Each home is independently licensed and operated. An adult family home can serve between 2 and 8 residents. All adult family homes provide some essential services including assistance with activities of daily living, meals, laundry and more.

dent’s needs. The Adult Family Home Council is a mission driven member organization formed in 1995 providing adult family home providers with resources and training covering all aspects of their business. The Adult Family Home Council supports 11 regional chapters that conduct regular meetings, continuing education and networking opportunities. The Adult Family Home Council also advocates on behalf of AFH providers with the state legislature, the Department of Social and Health Services, as a member of the Washington State Senior Citizen’s Lobby, and is the exclusively recognized representative of adult family homes for purposes of collective bargaining.
