Shoreline Housing Outreach
Housing Outreach was added as a new program in May 2018 as an effort by King County to support programs outside of the City of Seattle. This program is jointly funded by King County with 20% matching funds from the City of Shoreline. A full time housing specialist was hired to conduct outreach on the streets of Shoreline with the primary purpose of connecting people to housing and essential services via King County’s Coordinated Entry and Streets to Home funding from United Way. This worker is available oncall to City of Shoreline’s police, fire and parks departments to respond to resource needs of people experiencing homelessness. They visit Shoreline facilities, meal programs, bus stops, and outdoor locations to engage people and build relationships with other service providers.

In Memoriam
Phil was homeless off and on for more than 15 years, and was beloved in the Lake City homeless and service provider communities. He was a Real Change vendor and a veteran, and had spent time at the VA Hospital the week he died. Early morning on August 5, 2009, Phil Carrasco died by suicide. He is missed.
After coming to God’s Li’l Acre for a couple of years, as a quite elderly woman, Eva was invited to move into the home of one of the center’s volunteers. She lived with this family until her peaceful passing two years later on December 11, 2011.
Eva is warmly remembered by many at God’s Li’l Acre for colorful clothing and a huge heart, and named “Mama of the Park.”
During the adult years that he lived in Lake City, Scott made many friends. While the life that followed was a norm different from his childhood, it was a journey that gave him strength to endure circumstances and experiences of all kinds.
Scott had a great sense of humor and loved to laugh and tease. He was kind and gentle, just a big ol’ “teddy bear” at heart.
We will miss him deeply.
