We believe everyone deserves a safe place to call home. Cedar Bay Residence is a mission‑driven nonprofit offering housing, supportive services, and community programs designed to uplift individuals and families in Vancouver, WA.
Cedar Bay Residence is a nonprofit housing organization and community development nonprofit advancing multi-phase affordable housing in Southwest Washington. Our approach integrates housing with resident-centered supports, so people don’t just find a unit, they find a pathway to stability, with guidance that evolves as their needs change over time.
As a housing support nonprofit, we connect residents to resources that support everyday life with services that are often difficult to navigate alone, offering consistent support through each stage of the process. Cedar Bay is built to be a place where stability is protected, neighbors are respected, and opportunity is accessible, creating a foundation for long-term growth and independence.
Beyond housing, we focus on building an environment where residents feel genuinely supported in their daily lives. This means fostering continuity, access to helpful services, and a community structure that encourages progress without pressure, so stability can turn into lasting confidence over time.

“Moving here changed my daily life in ways I didn’t expect. The support with housing, transportation, and basic services made everything feel less overwhelming. I finally have space to focus on work and my kids instead of constant stress. It feels stable, safe, and genuinely community-driven.”
“What stands out most is how approachable everything is. I didn’t feel lost in paperwork or systems as I have before. Whenever I needed help, someone actually guided me through it step by step. That kind of support makes a huge difference when you’re trying to rebuild stability.”
“The community here feels real, not just structured. My kids have access to tutoring and activities, and I’ve been able to attend workshops that actually help in everyday life. It’s not just housing—it’s a place where you feel supported in growing forward.”
“I’ve lived in places where you feel like just another number. This is different. There’s clarity in how things work, and the services are easy to access. It’s made managing rent, transportation, and daily needs much simpler and far less stressful than before.”
“Being here gave me a sense of stability I hadn’t felt in years. The programs are helpful, but it’s the overall environment that really matters. People are respectful, and there’s a feeling that you’re not alone in trying to move forward, which eventually helps to stay motivated and focused on rebuilding day by day.”
