HASCO has several programs that provide both housing and/or supportive services to assist homeless households on their journey to self-sufficiency. These programs include the Assertive Engagement Specialist for homeless families with children on HASCO’s Section 8 waitlist, the Service-Enriched Project-based Voucher Program for homeless families with children, and the HUD-VASH program for homeless veterans.
Service-Enriched Project-based Voucher Program
HASCO’s Service-Enriched Project-based Voucher Program serves homeless families with children by providing a rental subsidy and supportive services to them. The YWCA of Seattle – King County – Snohomish County, Catholic Community Services, Housing Hope, and Volunteers of America partner with HASCO to provide supportive services to the households, which include ongoing case management, life skills classes, chemical dependency treatment, mental health services and job training programs. Once the family successfully completes their service plan, they receive a tenant-based voucher and can move to market-rate housing.
HUD-VASH Program for Veterans
HASCO partners with the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs Seattle Division to provide HUD-VASH vouchers to homeless veterans in Snohomish County. HASCO provides the HUD-VASH rental subsidy to the veteran and the VA provides ongoing case management services. Interested veterans should talk to their VA social worker about the VASH program. If you are a homeless veteran and do not have a VA social worker, please call 425-293-0557 and ask for “A consult for referral to VASH.”
