Building Changes is pleased to announce up to $1.2 million in funding for High-Needs Family projects available through the Washington Families Fund's 2010 funding cycle. With the current resources available, the Fund will be able to support one to three projects with an approximate total of 30 units. Priorities for funding in this round include organizations serving families in counties where no Washington Families Fund High-Needs Family program currently exists.

The Washington Families Fund High-Needs Family Service Model is intended for agencies that serve chronically homeless families who are experiencing co-occurring disorders and multiple barriers that make it difficult to stay housed and employed. This model focuses on permanent supportive housing with intensive wrap-around services.

Letters of Interest are due on Friday, August 13, 2010. Selected agencies will be invited to submit a full application for funding due in September. Agencies will be notified of funding awards in December 2010.

For more details and to download application materials, go to our Funding Opportunities page.

The Washington Families Fund is a public-private partnership that seeks to expand the availability of supportive housing by providing stable, long-term funding to agencies with the best models for ending family homelessness and strengthening communities throughout Washington state. Building Changes has led the Fund since its creation in 2004. Learn more about five years of outcomes for the Washington Families Fund.
