The Resident Services Organization

The Washington Square Area Resident Council (WSARC) has become The Resident Services Organization (RSO). This change was made so that The RSO could support and assist residents without the limitations required by HUD law. The RSO kept the IRS tax-exempt status; donations can be made, fundraisers held, and more. (A notice will be posted when this service is available.)

A new Resident Council is being created, as part of the RSO. Its main focus will be working with the Bellingham Housing Authority to preserve and improve quality of life for the residents served. It will share this website.

Right now, while still rebuilding, we have limited our service to Washington Square. We haven't forgotten Chuckanut or Lincoln Squares; we just need to do some more work first. As soon as we can, we'll include the other buildings.

While we're working on getting the RSO and the new Resident Council going, we're also starting to plan and create services.

As we progress, we'll keep you informed.
