From Crisis to Recovery: Shelter Serving King County Helps Women and Children Rebuild

The More We Love, a King County nonprofit, operates a 22-bed shelter serving approximately 45 women and children recovering from crisis, addiction, and abuse. Founded by Kristine Moreland, the organization combines private donations, volunteers, and public partnerships including a contract with King County and previous work with the City of Burien to provide recovery-focused support and mentorship. The shelter emphasizes personal relationships and stability as pathways to long-term housing and independence, with a community conversation scheduled for March 31 at Burien Library to inform neighbors about the organization’s work.
