South King County Recovery Café
Recovery does not happen only in treatment centers, counseling offices, or recovery residences. Much of recovery happens afterward — in ordinary life. Over coffee. Around a table. During difficult conversations. Through friendships, accountability, service, and having somewhere to belong.
Led by Rahma Recovery Center in partnership with Living Well Kent Collaborative, the Café is being developed to serve communities across South King County.
There is a place for you here.
What You'll Find at the Café
- Recovery circles and peer connection
- Recovery coaching and resource navigation
- Meals and fellowship
- Workshops and educational opportunities
- Recovery-oriented activities
- Volunteer and leadership opportunities
- Connections to treatment, housing, employment & behavioral health
- A welcoming community where people can belong
Recovery, In Numbers
Verified figures from Rahma Recovery Center's work across South King County. Numbers grow as our data systems mature — but behind every one of them is a person.
Salaam House
Through Narcan Education
Through Intervention
Recovery Residences
Behind every number is a person.
A parent. A son. A daughter. A brother. A sister. A family hoping this time might be different.
A Full Continuum of Recovery Support
Recovery requires more than stopping the use of substances — it takes safety, housing, relationships, accountability, and purpose. Here's how Rahma Recovery Center strengthens the entire recovery environment surrounding a person.

Learn MoreBuilt From Lived Experience. Driven By Purpose.
Rahma Recovery Center was not created from a theory about what people struggling with addiction need — it grew from lived experience. Our founder, Hussein Ugas, experienced firsthand the realities of addiction, mental-health struggles, justice-system involvement, rebuilding, and long-term recovery.
Those experiences revealed both the power of recovery and the gaps that remain for people whose culture, faith, family, or lived experience may not be understood within traditional systems. Rahma Recovery Center was created to help bridge those gaps.
- Culturally responsive support that honors faith, identity, and family
- Peer-led support from staff who understand recovery firsthand
- Family and community support, not just individual treatment
Recovery is not theoretical — it is lived one day at a time. That's the foundation our team is built on.

Faith-Informed. Open to Everyone.
Rahma Recovery Center was founded from Muslim and East African lived experience, and faith remains part of how we understand healing. We don't hide that — culture and faith can be strengths in recovery, not barriers to receiving care.

Stories From Our Community
What stood out most was the community. I wasn't treated like a number — I was treated like a person who mattered.
The environment at Salaam House is calm, respectful, and supportive. Having a recovery space that understands both cultural and faith needs made a real difference in my journey.
Rahma Recovery Center gave me more than a place to stay — it gave me structure, dignity, and a sense of belonging during one of the hardest seasons of my life.
