Health Through Housing (HTH) dashboard
The Health Through Housing (HTH) initiative is accelerating our region's response to chronic homelessness by leveraging what began as an emergency response at the peak of the COVID-19 pandemic into a permanent part of King County’s housing landscape. Through strategically acquiring and repurposing hotels and other buildings, HTH provides immediate supportive housing for people experiencing chronic homelessness.
In 2024, the HTH initiative’s third full year of operation, the initiative continued expanding the availability of supportive housing across the region in collaboration with host jurisdictions, neighboring communities, and community-based supportive housing operators. HTH ended the year with 1,434 secured units across 17 locations in seven cities: Auburn, Burien, Federal Way, Kirkland, Redmond, Renton, and Seattle. A total of 1,281 people were served through the initiative in 2024 – a net increase of 370 distinct residents since 2023.
New to this year’s dashboard are health outcome metrics which indicate positive changes to residents’ health and health care access.
