Hutton Settlement

The Hutton Settlement Children's Home has been a pilar of the Spokane community for 100 years. Founded by Levi Hutton in 1919, he believed in teaching strong work ethic, perserverance and compassion. Today, the children at Hutton continue to thrive on the basic lessons Levi so fervently believed in and which were the very foundation of the legacy of love he left.

It is our vision that through excellence in residential care and family engagement, the Hutton Settlement will empower each child to lead an independent and fulfilled life of value and contribution. At Hutton, we strongly believe that children need stability so that they may develop to be responsible & healthy.

We believe in: A safe home and family, Relationships of compassion and respect, Hope and wholeness through opportunity. Hutton Settlement is an option for children in need of long-term care.

The Hutton Settlement is privately endowed, therefore it is not dependent on government funding for support. No child is turned away because a parent/guardian is unable to pay. The charge depends on if caretaker is able to pay.

The Hutton Settlement Children’s Home provides hope, opportunity and life to abused, abandoned and traumatized children in Spokane. We work to nurture, educate and prepare children who are in need of a safe and healthy home with the intent to empower each child to lead an independent and fulfilled life of value and contribution.
