Chief Seattle Club

2023-24 Award - Systems & Policy Change - $125,000

Chief Seattle Club will continue building its organization’s platform for long-term homelessness and housing advocacy for Native people in King County. This cycle's work will prioritize three strategies: Strengthening partnerships with Native providers in King County to advocate for funding and advance best practices, advocating for changes to the Point on Time Count (PIT) aiming for this effort to accurately reflect the current homelessness crisis and spearheading the development of a comprehensive list of every person in the community experiencing homelessness, updated in real time, to inform further policy efforts.
