We’re teaming up with Methow Valley Immigrant Justice to bring you a brief history of immigration and ICE in the United States, with stories from direct work alongside immigrant communities here in the Methow Valley. We’ll reflect on the frequently asked question, “What can I do?”, with an invitation to consider how meaningful change begins with relationship-building, presence, and genuine human connection.

Today, many communities across the country are pausing for a national shutdown. Our office is already closed on Fridays, but this moment feels worth naming.

We’re grateful to live in a community where so many local businesses and organizations are pausing to reflect, to stand for safety, and to affirm the dignity and humanity of all people. This is not political, it’s humanitarian. It’s about choosing care over fear, connection over division, and community over isolation.

The Methow Valley has always been a place where neighbors show up for one another. In a rural community like ours, we depend on each other. That interdependence is what makes this valley a place where people can belong and feel safe.

We know that times like these can feel heavy and uncertain. And we also know this: when we lead with compassion and courage, our community becomes stronger.

Thank you for being part of a valley that looks out for one another. 💛🩵

As 2025 comes to a close, we’re looking back through a lens of gratitude 🩵💛

This year brought growth, challenge, honesty, resilience, and deep connection—and every step of the way, our community showed up. From food access and housing support to youth empowerment, prevention, and advocacy, none of this work happens in isolation. Thank you for being part of what makes Room One a steady presence in the Methow Valley ✨

Thank you thank you thank you!!

Gifts for the Giving Tree were delivered to Room One this morning. We were excited to share in the joy of the holiday season by fulfilling Christmas wishes for local families. Thank you to everyone who opened their hearts (and wallets) for the Giving Tree. Sadly, a few tags were not returned which means someone may be missing out on receiving a gift. Most of the missing tags are for children. It may be the only gift they get this year. If you still have a gift tag, you may take the gifts directly to Room One today by 4 PM or Monday by 4 PM. They are open from 9-4 and closed on Fridays. If you are unable to get your gift in on time, please message us the tag number from the tag you are holding. We will try to make sure the intended recipient receives their gift.

Osa stopped by this morning to remind everyone that next week (12/22-12/24) is the last time we’ll be open in 2025! If you still need to pick anything up (you will have gotten a message!) or anticipate needing a little extra help over the break, please stop by during walk-in hours (12:30-4pm) or call 509-997-2050 to make an appointment.

We’re adding a massive resource for our local teens, and the soft opening is today! While the space will open officially next year for 9th-12th graders, anyone is welcome to stop by and check out the space.
