Our case worker reports:
The Threshold fund has been essential in family reunification of parents and children who have entered foster care. Many parents have worked hard to fulfill the requirements of the foster care system, and housing is often the last piece. Affordable family housing in King County is a rare find and move-in costs put this tough goal out of reach for many who live paycheck to paycheck. The Threshold fund removes this barrier so that parents can focus on what matters most.
One such parent is the father of two young children who was facing homelessness. With the quick response of the Threshold Fund, he was able to move into safe housing, allowing for a stable home for his family, and keeping them together. His relief and happiness in being able to provide his children with a home is what the Threshold Fund is all about.
We can do more!
