THE STORY OF ROSE HOUSE

Rose House opened in September 1995, made possible through the generosity of the City of Port Angeles, the State Housing Trust Fund, and countless community members, foundations, and donors.

The house itself has a history. It was originally the home of the Red and Rose Crumb family, who lived there from 1954 through the 1980s. After raising their family, the Crumbs opened the home as a hospice, offering comfort and care to those facing serious illness. When the city eventually acquired the land, they donated the house to Healthy Families. It was moved to its current location, renovated, and reopened as a shelter for survivors.

The house was named in honor of Rose Crumb and the healing she brought to this community. That tradition continues today. Rose House remains what it has always been: a place where people come to heal, rebuild, and reclaim their lives.
