The Washington Low Income Housing Alliance funds grassroots tenant- and community-centered advocacy across Washington state, prioritizing tenant organizing, housing policy advocacy, and community services for low-income and marginalized populations. Their grants tend to support advocacy campaigns, community centers that serve Black and immigrant communities, and statewide housing policy infrastructure rather than direct capital projects. Funding is regionally focused within Washington and aimed at organizations that mobilize or convene low-income residents around housing and equity issues.
