Comprehensive Life Resources plans youth-facility closure and 92 layoffs after reporting $3 million in losses

Comprehensive Life Resources plans to close Tacoma's Pearl Youth Residence later in 2026 and permanently eliminate 92 positions, according to a Washington WARN filing and local reporting. The nonprofit reported approximately $3 million in operating losses at the facility since 2020. Most affected positions are behavioral-health technicians, nurses and other residential-program staff.

Status matters. This page records a sourced development, not a completed No Halo investigation. An allegation is not a finding. Dismissals, settlements, judgments, corrections and final outcomes remain distinct.

Donor relevance

Why this matters

The closure removes an inpatient behavioral-health resource for young people and represents a substantial workforce reduction. The reported multiyear losses also show that a specific program had become financially unsustainable under its existing model.

Attribution

Who reported or established this

KIRO 7 and MyNorthwest reported the closure and layoffs using the state WARN filing and statements from Comprehensive Life Resources.

Evidence limits

What remains unverified

No Halo has not independently audited the $3 million loss figure, established the final closure date or determined how many employees will obtain other jobs within the organization. The long-term disposition of the property remains unsettled.

Right of reply

Organization response

Comprehensive Life Resources encouraged affected employees to pursue other positions within the organization and said it was considering options for the site's future.
