Outreach Toolkit

Thank you for supporting King County Housing Authority’s Section 8 (rental assistance for housing) application process. With your help, we hope to reach everyone qualified to receive a Section 8 voucher and let them know of the opportunity, the steps to apply, and how selection for placement on the waitlist will occur.

To help you get the word out, we’ve created a toolkit with information to share with your community.

Please help us ensure that every person qualified for the Section 8 program hears about it! Feel free to share this with your staff, members, constituents, friends, and families.
