KATHARINE'S PLACE

HomeFamilies and IndividualsKatharine's Place

Katharine’s Place provides 25 units of low-income family housing in Seattle's Rainier Valley, with some units set aside for families with special needs. Fifteen (15) units are subsidized by Seattle Housing Authority and ten (10) of these units are designated as permanent housing units for homeless families with children.  The remaining ten (10) units are non-subsidized, rent-restricted units with monthly rents, as of December 2010, ranging from $650.00 (1-bedroom) to $920.00 (3-bedroom) per month.  Some units are reserved for families with special needs, including families in which one or more household member is disabled and large families of four (4) or more.  Additional criteria include meeting applicable income limits, eligible citizenship status and passing a criminal background check.

The waiting list for Katharine's Place is currently closed. We are not accepting new applications at this time.  

For applicants already on the waitlist, the average wait time is estimated to be approximately two (2) years.  Applicants already on the waitlist are responsible to check in regularly to save their spot and to inform Katharine’s Place staff of any changes to their contact information or household conditions.  To check in, please call Sarah at (206) 722-0717.

Katharine’s Place is always looking for support from community volunteers.  Whether you’re interested in physical projects like weeding or interior painting, teaching an afternoon art project to children or hosting a big holiday event, we would love your help!  For more information, select the link to the “Katharine’s Place Volunteer Brochure.”

In-kind donations and financial contributions are also greatly appreciated.  We’re especially interested in a new basketball hoop for our courtyard!  See the “Katharine’s Place Donations Flyer” for more information.
