About Us

 

The Seattle Human Services Coalition is a multi-racial, multi-cultural group of human service providers and concerned community members committed to helping Seattle-King County residents meet their basic human needs.  Our work is organized through thirteen member coalitions each representing an area of service within the community such as hunger intervention, domestic violence prevention, early education, community healthcare and homelessness to name only a few.  These groups of diverse individuals collaborate to identify a shared agenda and mobilize communities to act on  a vision to help our communities meet their basic human needs.

 

 

What We Do

We advocate together on issues affecting the residents of Seattle and King County abilities to meet their basic human needs through community organizing.

We collaborate to shape public policies that promote racial equity and social justice, and also allow our residents to have food when in hunger, access to affordable housing and shelter, safety and affordable healthcare.

We Invest in People by helping securing resources that allow our residents to survive and help build healthy communities.

We educate policy-makers and the community relaying your story, giving a face to a statistics and sharing information on current issues within human services.
