Partners4Housing

Thanks to a generous grant from the Developmental Disabilities Council’s Dan Thompson Memorial Fund, Parents4Housing can now provide free Residential Assessments to 6,688 families in Washington State.

As a family member, completing a Residential Assessment (RA) will help you explore housing possibilities and make a plan for the future of your family member with IDD. The RA starts with an online questionnaire, where you and your family member will define your housing goals. This person-centered approach helps you and your family understand how to access all the benefits your family member is eligible for, including that all-important Section 8 housing subsidy.

The Arc of Washington is thrilled to be partnering to help reach as many families as possible in Washington state.
