Shower Access Program offered at Tacoma Center YMCA
Shower Access Program provides free 12-minute shower access for those experiencing homelessness. The program provides essential hygiene, food, and laundry services to youth, families, and adults. Access is limited to the listed time slots with no access to the steam room, sauna, hot tub, or pool. The Y is dedicated to continuing to offer showers to those in need in our community. Our partnership launched in spring 2020 in response to COVID-19 restrictions, leaving many members of our community without homes who needed a place to shower every day. This program and partnership have served over 4,086 community members since its start in June with a wide variety of backgrounds and experiences. Access to showers helps provide stability in people’s lives, but showers aren’t all that this partnership offers.
