Arlington Drive Youth Campus, Tacoma, Washington is a development providing housing and services for youths and young adults who are experiencing homelessness, making the transition from foster care, or on the threshold of homelessness.

The Arlington Drive Campus consists of a Crisis Residential Center (CRC) for youth and a 58- unit apartment complex for homeless young adults. The CRC houses up to twelve 12 – 17 year olds. The 5,547- square- foot building has an open floor plan which includes bedrooms, administrative offices, a common area, family- style kitchen, dining area, computer lab, library and study areas, secure patio, and laundry center.

The adjacent apartment complex provides 58 units for previously homeless 18- to 24-year-olds. The Social Impact Center of the YMCA of Greater Seattle provides on-site supportive services. The young adults were included in the design process for the development of Arlington Drive Apartments and as a result, amenities include on- site laundry, a large community room with a demonstration kitchen, bike storage, private study areas, spacious floor plans with expansive windows, and a secure entry. The 58 apartments house about 140 young people at any one time, with about 30% of the residents being parents of babies and toddlers.
