Keep King County Housed 2024- 2025
United Way of King County in partnership with the King County Department of Community and Human Services (DCHS), Adult Services Division (ASD), is making an investment in Homelessness Prevention through the Keep King County Housed Program (KKCH). Keep King County Housed is a rental assistance and eviction prevention program designed to reach as many people as possible in King County at risk of homelessness and living in low-income households stay housed. The program leverages existing prevention program funding to meet financial and service needs of people at risk of homelessness due to non-payment of rent. Grantees will be considered from letters of interest submitted by nonprofit organizations with a history of providing rental assistance and other housing stability programs in King County.

Volunteers use our database to search for opportunities that match their interests and availability. We also auto post your volunteer listings to Serve Washington’s Get Connected, AARP’s Create the Good, and Points of Light—which means you get greater reach!
