Since its launch, Weld has served over 1,000 system-impacted people reentering the community from incarceration, homelessness, and/or addiction.

Weld offers safe, dignified, clean and sober recovery housing for people reentering the community from incarceration, homelessness, and in recovery from addiction. Housing members are expected to be actively engaged in their reentry. They work, they volunteer, and they attend community meetings. But mostly, they belong.

Weld Seattle believes in harnessing the power of community in building and reshaping lives, and nurturing a sense of accountability and support among its members. Weld’s group conscious of peer-on-peer support flows through its staff, to its house managers, to its members, then back out to the greater community.

Weld Works offers a temporary to permanent direct placement employment program connecting members with employment opportunities in construction, general labor, manufacturing, property maintenance, and retail. Weld Works gives people in transition the connections, skills, and training necessary to become longterm and meaningful workers.
