PEH Racial Equity

Partnership To End Homelessness

Partnership To End Homelessness Board

The Partnership to End Homelessness (PEH) is a board representing our Continuum of Care for Snohomish County. The PEH was established in 2013 to oversee community planning around issues of homelessness in the county. The Continuum of Care program consists of projects that provide housing and supportive services to individuals and families to attain and sustain permanent housing. The PEH uses U.S. Housing and Urban Development (HUD) funds to support the work by nonprofit providers to re-house homeless individuals and families rapidly while minimizing the trauma and dislocation caused by homelessness.

Racial Equity Advisory Board

The Partnership to End Homelessness (PEH) board oversees funding, policies, and practices to address homelessness in Snohomish County. The PEH is committed to diversity within its membership and looking for individuals to join the Racial Equity Advisory Board. The Racial Equity Advisory Board is helping the PEH establish the foundations needed to support and sustain future equity strategies for the improvement of housing and homelessness services.
