FWBC Programs
Portfolio of Work
Coalitions & Empowerment
Relationship-based family connection program that utilizes strength-based approaches that honor the black culture in South King County, mainly in Federal Way. We routinely provide culturally responsive services as well as promote initiatives that are anchored on a social justice initiative that is driven by a movement and not a moment by providing positive communal spaces for families to come together, connect, and heal. The project focuses on a holistic process that authentically serves families and ensures that each participant in our program has a healthy development throughout the many different stages of life. We also utilize multi-generational approaches that focus on socio economic stability, and promote an equity driven upward mobility trajectory.

Established in 2019 and moving into an administrative start-up just as the COVID-19 pandemic set in, KCRHA has been charged with unifying King County’s response to the homelessness crisis. KCRHA is seeking to transform the homelessness response system to ensure all who seek support are connected with the services that best suit their needs and provide a path to housing stability.
​
Partnership in this effort is essential– working alongside people with lived experience, service providers, advocates, government partners, faith-based organizations, and the community at large, KCRHA is focused on delivering tangible solutions to address the current state of homelessness in King County.
Abby Anderson will be presenting on the South King County Sub-Regional Plan, which looks at how we will implement the agency's Five-Year Plan in South King County.
