House of Champions
The House of Champions (HOC) was founded to address the homeless crisis in Washington State, where in 2015 over 35,000 students Kindergarten through 12 were without a place to call home. The HOC is the first of it's kind, offering housing, college prep and life skills development. The HOC is located in South Seattle in a gated community and serves up to four homeless high school students at any one time.
Our Goal:End teen homelessness in Washington State.

Our Vision:We believe access to housing is a basic human right, and teen homelessness contradicts the right to safe and adequate shelter.
|
Our Mission:To alleviate homelessness starting with high schools throughout King County by bringing awareness and housing solutions.

House Of Champions is pleased to announce our new house location, in a gated community, that provides a place for teens to feel safe, secure, and successful.
"We evaluate the needs of each student and offer game-changing support services to help alter the direction of their lives as they prepare to graduate and explore a post-high school pathway." - Derek Sparks, Founder
