Welcome to United Way of Pierce County's Volunteer Solutions

"The Tacoma Lutheran Home and Retirement Community exists to provide care in a Christ-centered environment in an atmosphere of respect and dignity for the whole person, exemplifying the love of Christ for any in need."

Description:
We have a strong tradition of being responsive to people's needs and expectations. Our history reflects consistent growth in our services and in the number or people we serve. This would not be the case unless we were providing services that were needed by our customers and delivered in a quality manner.

Our residents are the focus of everything we do, the sole reason for our existence as an organization. As we direct our efforts to help people improve the quality of their lives, we must be attuned to the needs of expectations they bring us. Everything we do, from management and supervision to direct services and support, is defined in relation to its impact on the people who come to use for help.

History:
TLH & RC organized in 1938 to provide retirement housing and nursing home services for the elderly, is owned by thirty Pierce County Lutheran Congregations. On any given day, we serve approximately 450 individuals. This is accomplished through a variety of programs and services that involve approximately 335 employees, each of whom are special in their own right.
