Homelessness may not be one of the first things that come to mind when you think of the booming cities and suburbs east of Lake Washington. But shelters on the Eastside estimate they’ll serve well over twenty five hundred people this coming year. Congregations for the Homeless Executive Director David Bowling describes how being homeless on the Eastside differs from being on the street in Seattle.

A new Eastside Men’s shelter and supportive housing is proposed in Bellevue’s Eastgate area.
