Washington Adult Family Home Directory

Use the search bar for a city, ZIP code, or home name, or choose a county such as King, Pierce, Snohomish, Spokane, Clark, Thurston, Kitsap, Whatcom, or Yakima. Then open a listing for the address and phone. Call the home to ask if a bed is open; this directory does not show vacancies.

An Adult Family Home is a licensed residential setting, usually in a house, that provides room, board, and personal care for a small number of adults. Washington AFHs are commonly licensed for up to six beds. Families often compare AFHs with assisted living, in-home care, and nursing homes.

Yes. Filter by King County for Seattle, Bellevue, Kent, Renton, Auburn, and Federal Way; Pierce County for Tacoma, Puyallup, and Lakewood; Snohomish County for Everett and Lynnwood; Spokane County; or Clark County for Vancouver. You can also type a city or ZIP in the search field.

Names, addresses, DSHS license numbers, licensed bed counts, and contract notes are a snapshot of the public Washington DSHS Long Term Care Residential Care geoservice. Confirm anything important on the official DSHS facility lookup before you tour or sign an agreement.

No. This is a licensed-facility list, not a live vacancy board. It does not show waitlists, private-pay openings, or whether a home is currently accepting residents.

No. AFH Calculator does not rank, endorse, inspect, or refer homes. Use a listing to find contact details, then tour, ask about care, and verify the license yourself.

A Medicaid tag means the public DSHS record lists a Medicaid-related contract field. It is not a guarantee that a specific resident is eligible, accepted, or paid at a particular daily rate. Confirm with the home and DSHS. Published Washington Medicaid daily rates are in the AFH Medicaid Rate Calculator.

Those tags come from public contract notes: Expanded Community Services (ECS), Specialized Behavior Support (SBS), and Private Duty Nursing (PDN). They describe listed contracts, not a clinical assessment of a resident.

Type the license number in the search box, or open a home and copy the license from the listing. Then verify the same number on the official Washington DSHS facility lookup.

This snapshot is Washington only. Other states will be added only from official public license sources, not from invented listings.

The snapshot date is shown under the filters. Licenses, addresses, and contracts change. Always verify the home on the DSHS lookup before you rely on a record.

The count under the filters is the number of licensed names that match your search. The snapshot includes thousands of Washington Adult Family Homes. Change county, city, or type to see a different total.
