COVID-19
The COVID-19 crisis has upended every aspect of daily life and our neighbors experiencing homelessness are no different. We Are In is focused on long term solutions to ending homelessness in Seattle and King County while supporting immediate measures to protect the health and safety of our community – such as moving shelter residents to private hotel rooms where they can safely socially distance.

“I’m advocating for solutions to homelessness because I’ve been through this before and I know how hard it is. The less people go through it, I think the better our world becomes.” Alyssa Downing, The Mockingbird Society
“Our homeless community is beautiful, vibrant, and full of resilience. They have so much to teach us if we will listen.” Colleen Echohawk, Chief Seattle Club
“What excites me about this new approach is that we’ve come up with a structure that will allow all parts of the county – rural, suburban, urban, to work together to solve homelessness.” Gordon McHenry Jr., United Way
“What we’ve learned about ending homelessness is that you need a nimble command center style team. You need an entity with the authority to be able to act quickly and to manage the resources. That’s what we need here.” LaMont Green, Lived Experience Coalition
