King County Housing Authority
Non-profit Organizations
Since its establishment in 1939, KCHA has played a key role in providing affordable housing options for residents of the metropolitan region surrounding Seattle. Through partnerships with local communities and nonprofit organizations, KCHA delivers affordable housing and related support services such as education, job training and social services to more than 55,000 local residents who earn less than the county median income. KCHA is an independent municipal corporation established under state law, assists more than 23,000 households in the Seattle metropolitan region on a daily basis. A mission-driven organization, we administer rental housing and work closely with community stakeholders to address local priorities such as ending homelessness, improving educational outcomes for the region's low-income youth and assuring that disabled and elderly households can live with dignity. Head-quartered in Tukwila, WA, KCHA employs 500 full-time employees and is led by the President/CEO, Robin Walls, under the direction of a Board of five volunteer Commissioners (including one KCHA program participant) appointed by the King County Executive and confirmed by the King County Council. A cabinet of eight senior leaders comprise the core management and leadership team. We are a high performing group and we are glad to provide creative and self-directed individuals with a variety of future opportunities. Our mission: As a national leader in affordable housing, King County Housing Authority serves to provide innovative, effective, and equitable housing solutions so that all people and communities can prosper. Our vision is: That all residents of King County have quality affordable housing. We transform lives through housing.
