VA Puget Sound Fisher House: Making a home, creating a family

Since 2008 VA Puget Sound Fisher House has been a "home away from home" for the families of Veterans and active duty military who are hospitalized. The House, with its 20 guest suites, is located on the campus of the VA Puget Sound Healthcare System, allowing families to be near their loved one while enjoying a place of peace and respite for themselves. Families stay for free, lifting their financial burden and allowing them to focus on their patient..

Your generous sharing of time, treasure and talent embrace these families during a difficult time. Because of you they are never alone and with them you form a unique kind of family, a Fisher House family.

About Fisher House

The Fisher House program is a unique private-public partnership that supports America’s military families in their time of need. The program recognizes the special sacrifices of our men and women in uniform and the hardships of military service by meeting a humanitarian need beyond what the Department of Veterans Affairs normally provides.
