Thank you for purchasing the 2013 Where to Turn Plus!
Resource Center staff from King County 2-1-1 (previously the Community Information Line) have
been creating Where to Turn directories for more than 25 years! Initially targeted to professionals
in social services, our readership has grown to include students, library patrons, receptionists,
firefighters, police officers, therapists and  human resource managers–anyone who encounters
people in need. Knowing where to turn for information about financial assistance, food resources,
shelter,andothersocialservicesisimportant.Beingabletorelyontheaccuracyofthatinformation
is critical. King County 2-1-1 will continue to step up to the challenge and provide you with tools
to meet this need, including our redesigned set of Where to Turn directories for 2013.
The original source of directory information is the King County portion of the statewide 2-1-1
Community Resources Online (CRO) database, which is available at www.WA211.org. Resource
Center staff ensures the information is accurate by actively pursuing updates from agency
contacts, attending meetings, reading newsletters and following up on tips from callers. This
sophisticated database is also used by our professional 2-1-1 Information & Referral Specialists in
order to provide the highest quality referrals in King County, tailored to the unique circumstances
of each caller. If you are unable to locate the information or resource needed in the directory or
online, you can call and talk with an Information & Referral Specialist who may be able to help.
King County 2-1-1 hours are Monday-Friday, 8am-6pm.
To make the most of this resource, bookmark our Resource Talk Blog (www.resourcetalk.
crisisclinic.org) or subscribe to the Resource Talk Blog email (www.crisisclinic.org/education/
resource-talk-enewsletter). New information about agencies, services and events is posted
daily, and it is advised that you use the updates on the blog to make notes in this directory when
you come across information that has changed.
Where to Turn directories are designed to be an effective reference tool and we strive to make
them as user friendly as possible. Once you’ve become familiar with your directory, please take
a moment to respond to our survey. With your input, we’ll be able to make future Where to Turn
directory editions even more helpful. The survey will be emailed to you shortly after you receive
your order. Our goal at King County 2-1-1 is to provide the community with the most accurate
and up-to-date information and to make finding that information as easy as possible.
Your community partner,
Ryan Peterson

King County 2-1-1 and Specialized Services
Do you need local resources to help you:
• Pay the rent and feed your family?
• Care for a loved one with disabilities?
• Find in-home care services?
• Find emergency housing?
• Enroll in a computer class?
• Obtain dental or health care services?
• Acquire legal or civil rights assistance?
King County 2-1-1 provides expert assistance to people seeking information about community resources. Using a
database of more than 6,000 King County services, Information and Referral Specialists can explain how social service
systems work, coach callers on how to access community resources and recommend the agencies best able to help.
Bed Bank
The Bed Bank offers current information on open shelter space at participating local domestic violence shelters.
Information is verified once each day and available M-F, after 9:30am.
Caregiver Information and Assistance Program
Assists unpaid caregivers, ages 18 and older, in identifying and clarifying needs, locating resources and finding
support related to caring for an adult, age 18 or older, with a disability or illness. Our Caregiver Specialist provides
in-depth support to informal caregivers living in King County who have complex, urgent needs not being met
by other providers. Services include care consultation, long-term care planning, advocacy, links to resources and
follow-up support. This program has funding available to provide short-term respite services in the home or
community for caregivers with emergency needs.
Civil Legal Referrals
King County 2-1-1 is designated as the entry point for screening and referrals for those seeking free or low-cost
civil legal services.
Community Resources Online (CRO)
The online version of our database is part of a statewide directory of community resources. The search engine lists
up-to-date resources, searchable by topic, geographic area, keyword and agency name. www.WA211.org
Disability Information and Assistance Program
Our Disability Program Specialist is able to help people who are age 18 or over, reside in King County, live
independent of a full-time caregiver, and have a more complex situation related to their disability or who may
need extra assistance in getting connected to a service provider. We work closely with many disability providers
and often know which services are most effective.
Emergency Services Brochures and Ex-Offender Re-entry Packets
King County 2-1-1 offers downloadable brochures on our website to help connect people with the most critical
services in King County. Brochures are updated at least three times per year and often more frequently. The date
of the last update is printed on the front of the brochure. Re-entry Packets provide information on resources for
anyone currently under supervision by the criminal justice system including anyone with a sex offense on his or her
record, as well as anyone experiencing a barrier to a basic need due to a prior conviction or record. Since updates
occur regularly, we suggest printing one item at a time or only printing small batches.
Resource Talk Blog and Newsletter
The Resource Talk blog is the social service news destination for King County and we update it with new resources
and information almost every day. It is searchable by keyword or date and provides critical resource changes,
community events, feature articles on important health and human service topics and updates to the annual
publication of the Where to Turn directory. Subscribe to the blog and get bi-monthly emails with links to the
most critical social service changes and events in King County at http://crisisclinic.org/education/resource-talk-

Family Housing Connection is the single entry point in King County for families and pregnant

screening and an appointment is scheduled for the family to meet with a Housing Specialist at
a convenient, child friendly location. The appointment will take about one hour (appointments
with interpretation services will take two hours). During that time, the family will discuss their
housing needs and barriers with a Housing Specialist. After the appointment, families can
stay in touch with Family Housing Connection for updates while they wait for an opening in
a shelter or housing program. When a housing resource becomes available, Family Housing
Connection will call the family to ask follow up questions. If the family is eligible for the
available housing resource, FHC will arrange a meeting between the family and that housing
program. If that program is a good fit for the family, the final step is moving into the housing
program. If that program is not a good fit, the family will remain at the top of the placement
list until a good fit is identified.

SERVICES
CAREGIVERS
A caregiver is an individual who provides help and support on a regular basis to a partner, child, relative, friend
or neighbor who is frail, has a physical or mental illness, or disability. More than 70 percent of all caregiving and
long-term care services are provided in the home by family caregivers. These unpaid individuals need their own
support to maintain personal, physical and emotional well-being. Specialized home and community services are
available to residents of King County to provide a needed "time out" for primary caregivers; programs designed
to serve adults with disabilities or illnesses may also serve caregivers. Kinship providers, individuals who care
for a child under the age of 18 who they are related to through blood, also qualify for services, including respite
care in some situations.
Caregiver support services are in demand, and some programs may have waiting lists. It is a good idea to
be familiar with the respite and caregiver assistance programs in the community before needing them. In
King County, many services support caregivers with in-home health care, house cleaning and information
about transitioning into assisted living for the people they are caring for. There are many support groups
and counseling options available to caregivers in King County, provided by private, volunteer and
government-sponsored agencies. When arranging services, have the following information on hand
regarding the person needing services: age, telephone number, address and Social Security number,
nature of illness or disability, how much and what kind of help may be needed, income and financial
resources, ability to pay for care vs. need for subsidized services, health insurance (including name and
telephone number of physician) and current services (including name and telephone number of providers).
Advocacy and Support Services
Sometimes caregivers need professional assistance to determine what services are needed and how to access them. A
care manager, outreach specialist or a kinship navigator can meet with a caregiver in their home to assess needs, explore
options and develop short- and long-term plans for how those needs can be met. Caregiver Specialists are able to provide
information about how to choose a care provider, how to evaluate quality and which kinds of services might be best for
a particular situation. In some cases, a care manager may even arrange for services directly and monitor them over time.

CHEMICAL DEPENDENCY
For an individual with a chemical dependency, the process of recovery starts with an assessment to determine
the severity of the illness and an appropriate treatment program. Several factors are considered in determining
the appropriate type of treatment for individuals in need of help with alcohol or other drug problems.
Considerations include type of treatment (inpatient or outpatient), length of program, location of the facility,
cost, the presence of other physical or mental health needs and any special program need, such as co-occurring
disorder, gender specific or culturally relevant treatment. The American Society of Addiction Medicine provides
a framework for assessing individuals with substance abuse problems. When making an assessment, a Chemical
Dependency Professional considers intoxication, withdrawal symptoms and potentials, biomedical conditions
and complications including tolerance, emotional and behavioral conditions, readiness for change and reasons
for quitting, relapse and continued-use potential, and the recovery environment, including family, home and
sources of social support. The severity and progression of the substance abuse problem, as well as the presence
of a co-existing condition can all impact the individual's ability to begin treatment. Some agencies have set fees;
others offer a sliding scale based on ability to pay. The majority of agencies accept private insurance to cover
most or all of the cost of treatment. Insurance and HMO plans often require pre-screening and pre-approval
before a person enters a treatment program. Many insurance plans maintain a list of preferred providers
from which participants must select to access their maximum benefits. In Washington state, individuals who
are unemployed and unable to support themselves financially due to chemical dependency may apply for
treatment through the DSHS - Community Services Offices. A number of benefit programs are available based
on financial need, disability status and diagnoses. Chemical Dependency treatment benefits for individuals who
are eligible or enrolled in Medicaid, Medicare or the Alcoholism and Drug Addiction Treatment and Support
Act (ADATSA) are available. Referrals to ADATSA are handled through DSHS Community Service Offices.

Harm Reduction
Addresses an individual whose behavior results in self-harm and/or is destructive to his/her environment, but who is not
ready, willing or able to cease the harmful behavior completely. This approach may focus on reducing the inherent risks
associated with the behavior by modifying the behavior in any way the individual is motivated to change. For example,
an injection drug user may not be interested in stopping injecting drugs, but may be motivated to reduce the risk of
transferring a communicable disease by using only clean, unshared syringes; In general, a service provider using a Harm
Reduction approach would likely address a chemically dependent individual's needs and concerns without requiring the
individual to completely abstain from substance use.

Housing

Transitional living residences and long-term housing programs offer clients a place to live while they work toward gainful
employment, obtain occupational training or acquire necessary life skills.These facilities may offer outpatient counseling
or other support services to help residents stay in recovery and maintain their sobriety. Although many programs exist,
the need for the services exceeds the available capacity.

and need long-term structure and support.These programs include individual and group treatment, referrals to 12-step
programs, family counseling, employment or vocational training and other components specific to that client population.

CHILD ABUSE AND NEGLECT
Child abuse and neglect crosses all socioeconomic, racial and geographic boundaries. Physical abuse can
include shaking and hitting; sexual abuse can include verbal sexual comments, exposure, sexual touching
and penetration. Examples of neglect include failure to provide adequate food, clothing, housing,
medical care, nurturing or supervision. Verbal or emotional abuse can include actions like constant
criticism, blame, belittlement, verbal threats and/or withholding affection. Children living in homes
where domestic violence occurs may also be considered abuse victims, depending on the circumstances.
Survivors of childhood maltreatment may experience depression, anxiety, overwhelming negative or
hostile feelings, difficulty sustaining interpersonal relationships, and various kinds of self-destructive
behavior, including suicidal thoughts or attempts, alcohol and substance abuse. Many of the long-term
effects of child abuse and neglect exhibit themselves in adolescence or adulthood. Survivors need a
safe, supportive place to begin to heal from their abuse and cultivate healthy connections with others.
Crisis Services
Help is available 24 hours daily to respond to child abuse and neglect and provide medical evaluation and social service
support. In cases of sexual abuse, it is a good idea to call to determine which hospital or clinic is able to perform a medical
exam for the abuse. Mandated reporters include child care workers, therapists, healthcare providers and teachers. Reports
are required from all professionals who work with children, and are encouraged from all people witnessing or suspecting
child abuse or neglect. Any person, who in good faith reports suspected child abuse or neglect, cannot be legally penalized.

Mental Health Services
Adverse consequences impact a child's health and development in multiple domains: physical, cognitive, behavioral,
social and emotional. It is important for childhood victimization to be addressed as early as possible to help prevent
the long-term consequences that may occur if abuse or neglect remains untreated. Thorough evaluation and treatment
is essential, as not all children react to abusive or neglectful experiences in the same way. Counseling programs and
private therapists provide a safe, supportive place to begin to heal from abuse. The goal of intervention when abuse
has occurred is to ensure a child's safety and well-being. In addition, parents can obtain assistance in learning new skills
and more appropriate ways of interacting with their children. To achieve these goals, case management and long-term
counseling may be required after an initial report of abuse.

CHILD CARE
Health and safety standards, staff qualifications, parent communication and the ratio of adults to children are
among the requirements for child care licensure in Washington state. There are two types of licensed child
care facilities: child care homes, where a professional takes care of children in his or her own home, and child
care centers, where providers care for more children in a non-residential location. A wide range in child care
expenses can be expected, and cost is often determined by location type of program. Depending on the age
of the child, the average cost of care at a licensed child care center ranges from $919-1259, while comparable
services offered through a licensed home care facility range from $672-868. Increasingly, social services provided
to single parents (such as employment or education programs) either provide child care as a part of the program
or assist the parents in finding child care or transportation to child care providers.
In many cultures, extended family and community are expected to work together to raise children. This is the
most widely used form of child care for infants and toddlers in Washington State. Many families choose to have
children cared for by extended family, friends or neighbors because of established bonds of love and trust.

DISABILITIES
The Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 guarantees equal access to employment, public accommodations,
transportation, telecommunications and state and local government services for the more than 56 million
people with disabilities living in the United States. A person is considered to have a disability if he or she has a
physical or mental impairment that substantially limits one or more activities of daily living. More than 250,000
people with disabilities live in King County.
There are a number of agencies in King County that specifically serve people with disabilities and their families.
Services may include early intervention, financial assistance, employment training, assistive technology, travel
training, in-home support, information and referral, advocacy and legal assistance. Some agencies specialize
in serving people with a particular disability or medical condition resulting in a disability while others provide
services to people with varying disabilities.

DOMESTIC VIOLENCE
Domestic violence is a pattern of controlling and coercive behavior used by one or both partners in an
intimate relationship such as marriage, dating, family, friends or cohabitation. Domestic Violence may
involve any combination of physical, sexual, emotional or verbal abuse and often isolates the abused person,
diminishing their sense of inner strength, feelings of self-worth and the ability to make personal choices.
The emotional and mental abuse some victims experience may actually cause them to feel that what is
happening to them is their fault. According to the Centers for Disease Control, Approximately 1.3 million
women and 835,000 men are physically assaulted by an intimate partner annually in the United States.
Domestic Violence affects every community, regardless of ethnic group, culture or background. People
of all ages, income levels, faiths, sexual orientation, gender and education levels experience domestic
violence. These statistics and patterns have given rise to a variety of services for people experiencing abuse.
Batterer Intervention Programs

EDUCATION
The number of years spent in school directly correlates to a student’s earning potential. Over the course of a
lifetime a person with a bachelor’s degree will earn on average about twice as much as a person with only a
high school diploma. Students who drop out of high school are twice as likely to live in poverty, three times
more likely to be unemployed and eight times more likely to be in jail or prison than high school graduates. In
Washington state, the high school graduation rate was 76.6 percent in the 2011-12 school year. Many services
are available to help students stay in school and continue on to higher education.
Each school district has a liaison that ensures that youth experiencing homelessness have the opportunity
to succeed in school by organizing transportation to their school of origin or assisting them with enrollment
in their local school without delay. Also provides referrals to health care, dental, mental health and other
appropriate services. Homeless students cannot be penalized for infractions, such as absenteeism, that relate to
their homelessness.
Adult Basic Education
Offers remedial education for adults, mostly in reading and math.

School Districts
Under the McKinney-Vento act, students must be allowed to attend their school of origin "to the extent feasible." Factors
that may be considered include: the age of the child or youth; the impact the commute may have on the student's
education; personal safety issues; the student's need for special instruction; length of anticipated stay in temporary
shelter or other temporary location; and time remaining in the school year. District boundaries are not a factor in the
decision. Homeless students also have the right to be enrolled in their local school "immediately" even if they do not have
a parent or guardian, proof of residency, immunization records, school records or other documents normally required
to enroll in school. Once students are enrolled, the liaison must help students get records from the last school and any
medical records.

ETHNICITY
In the 2010 U.S. Census, more than 450,000 residents of King County reported a race other than white, nearly
30% of the total population. Additionally, almost 25% of King County respondents reported speaking a language
other than English at home, and 11% reported that they speak English "less than very well." The census also
found that south Seattle is the home of the most diverse ZIP code in the United States: 98118. In response to the
needs of those who have recently entered the country, as well as domestic minority populations and indigenous
peoples, many agencies provide services focused on the diversity that represents our community. While often
serving people of any culture or ethnicity, agencies that provide culturally sensitive and linguistically appropriate

FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE
For many King County residents, cost of living is outpacing income, leaving households with the difficult task
of prioritizing the payment of numerous monthly bills. Many households find it impossible to pay rent or utility
bills for a period of time—especially when events like medical expenses, illness without paid leave, layoffs and
divorce/separation occur. Although many agencies in King County provide emergency assistance for rent and/
or utility expenses, the need for assistance far exceeds the funds available. If these bills cannot be paid in full,
residents should contact their landlord or utility company to try to negotiate a payment plan before eviction or
disconnection occurs. Households may also consider lessening their household expenses by postponing non-
essential purchases; applying for food benefits and/or visiting local food pantries; negotiating bill extensions;
selling extra or unneeded household items; and asking family, friends or local religious institutions for help.

Short-Term Housing Expenses
Short-term housing expense programs are programs that provide one time assistance with rent or move-in costs (first/
last/deposit). Most rental assistance programs require the client to have received an eviction notice, as the goal of the
agency is to assist the clients who are in the most emergent situations. Most move-in assistance programs require some
type of proof that the applicant has been accepted into a new building, pending the receipt of their deposit or first/last
month's rent.

FOOD
With the recent economic downturn, more individuals and families in our communities than ever are relying on
food banks and meal programs to secure the food they need to survive. Even before this most recent economic
crisis, 10.1 percent of households in Washington state were hungry or unsure of the source of their next meal. In
fiscal year 2009, food banks across King County distributed 30.7 million pounds of food to over 260,000 hungry
people. During the same year, King County's meal programs and shelters served over three million meals and
snacks. By the end of 2010, food banks experienced their largest spike in demand in 30 years ago. As 40 to 51
percent of people in the region have to choose between paying for food, heat, medical care, or rent, a number
of government and non-profit agencies offer programs to mitigate that choice and help alleviate hunger. In
addition to local food banks and meal programs, state and federal government programs are a significant source
of food assistance.
Baby Food
Baby food is often offered at food pantries, and called "baby cupboards." Most, but not all baby cupboards offer formula
and baby food jars. Often food cupboards will offer diapers and other infant items as well.

GLBTQI
Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual,Transgender, Questioning/Queer and Intersex (GLBTQI) people belong to a cultural group
that has historically faced significant discrimination and violence. GLBTQI people encounter institutional lack of
understanding within health care, social service, education and other systems. In response, many agencies in
the King County area exist specifically to serve GLBTQI communities, and others have expanded their services
to include cultural competence with GLBTQI clients. Individuals who identify as GLBTQI are not yet protected
federally against discrimination. Washington State, however, does prohibit discrimination on the basis of sexual
orientationandgenderidentityinhousing,employment,publicaccommodations,credit,lendingandinsurance.
Malicious harassment based on sexual orientation and gender identity is also illegal in Washington, and school
districts must, by law, ban bullying, harassment and intimidation on the basis of sexual orientation. On February
13, 2012, Washington Governor Christine Gregoire signed a same-sex marriage bill that had been passed by
both houses of the state legislature. Voters approved the legislation in a referendum held on November 6, 2012.
The law took effect on December 6 and the first marriages were celebrated on December 9, 2012.
Advocacy and Support Services
Organizations that support the passage and enforcement of laws and other social means that protect and promote the
rights and interests of the GLBTQI community, or people who are in the process of coming out or are questioning their
sexual orientation or gender identity.

HEALTH CARE
Charity Care, a program established under state law, requires hospitals to provide medical care for free or at a
reduced cost if the recipient of the care isn’t able to pay fully for the services received after exhausting any other
available health care coverage. Charity Care covers both inpatient and outpatient hospital services; however,
it may not cover services by medical personnel who aren’t considered part of the hospital’s medical staff
(including radiologists or anesthesiologists not employed by the hospital). Anyone whose income is at or below
100 percent of the Federal Poverty Level is entitled to free care. Anyone whose income is between 100 percent
and 200 percent is entitled to reduced cost care based on a sliding scale.
However, as part of national health reform, Washington state will have an easily accessible, central marketplace
for individuals, families and small businesses to buy health insurance beginning in 2014. Subsidies will be
availabletohelpthoseunabletoaffordinsurance.Additionally, Medicaidwillbeexpandedtoincludeindividuals
between the ages of 19 up to 65 (parents, and adults without dependent children) with incomes up to 138% FPL
based on modified adjusted gross income. This will affect the more than 282,000 projected uninsured residents
of King County. Nearly 80,000 of those would qualify for the Medicaid expansion and nearly 118,000 would
qualify for subsidies. The Washington State Health Care Authority is coordinating the implementation plan.
Adult Day Health
Specialized social and health programs are available to serve people with physical disabilities and/or cognitive
impairments, providing social and recreational activities for participants, as well as respite to caregivers. Some programs

weekends. Fees vary, and full or partial funding may be available for individuals on low or fixed incomes.

HOMELESS RESOURCES
More than 8,000 people are homeless on any given night in King County.This includes over 2,500 people staying
in emergency shelter, nearly 3,400 in temporary transitional housing, and more than 2,700 people counted
outdoors during the 2013 One Night Count of homeless people. In a recent King County survey conducted
by United Way, 24 percent of respondents have either been homeless or had a family member experiencing
homelessness. Caused by many factors, including poverty; the lack of affordable housing, particularly for people
with disabilities, seniors, and people working low wage jobs; divorce, domestic violence and lack of family
supports; chronic health problems; mental illness; chemical abuse and dependency; and catastrophic events
may all contribute to homelessness. Some people are homeless due to life situations and need temporary
assistance to re-stabilize their lives; others have long-term mental or physical health issues that have led to
chronic homelessness and need more intensive help to reclaim their lives. A network of programs addresses the
effects of homelessness and works to prevent residents from becoming homeless in the future.

HOUSING
By federal standards, housing is considered affordable when monthly rents or mortgage payments (plus
utilities) cost no more than 30 percent of a household’s monthly income. According to a 2011 report by the U.S.
Department of Housing and Urban Development, more than 132,000 [Washington] households are extremely
low income and have severe rent burdens - meaning they earn less than about $19,000 a year for a family
of three and pay more than half their income for rent and utilities. In King County, locating and maintaining
affordable housing is a predominant problem for households; with steadily increasing rents, mortgage costs
and apartment-to-condominium conversions among the factors affecting households of varying incomes.
A number of government and non-profit developers throughout King County offer subsidized and low-cost
housing options for low- to moderate-income tenants and homebuyers, largely through subsidies and tax
credits from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), but also through state, county
and municipal funds. Due to the region’s high demand for affordable housing, however, these programs’waiting
lists can range from a few months to several years.

HUMAN REPRODUCTION
The primary goal of Family Planning Programs in King County is to decrease the rate of unintended (unplanned)
pregnancies and improve the reproductive and sexual health of all residents. Once a woman has decided to
continue her pregnancy, it is important that she have all the support she needs to make the birth and first year of
her child’s life a success. Take Charge, a program through DSHS and Medicaid, was designed to meet the needs
of people at or below 250% of the Federal Poverty Level who don’t have insurance or whose insurance does not
cover contraceptive services.

IMMIGRANT/REFUGEE
Immigrants are individuals who have fled their native country and have been given official permission by the
government to settle permanently in another country. In the United States, refugee status is given to people
who are unwilling or unable to return to their country of nationality because of persecution based on the
individuals’race, religion, nationality, membership in a particular social group or political opinion.
U.S. Census data reports that 20.1% of King County’s population or about 383,000 people were born outside
of the United States. Of those, about 203,000 are not U.S. citizens. According to Office of Immigration Statistics
(Department of Homeland Security), a total of 56,384 persons were admitted to the United States as refugees
during 2011. As lawful permanent residents, refugees (and asylees) have the right to own property, attend
public schools, join certain branches of the US Armed Forces, travel internationally without a visa, and, if certain
requirements are met, apply for US citizenship. However, immigrants and refugees may be eligible for, but are
having difficulty understanding and/or obtaining access to, government-sponsored entitlement programs and
social services including housing programs, employment assistance and job training, medical assistance, and
other government entitlements. Many arrive to this country suffering from post-traumatic stress, multiple losses
and enormous difficulties in cultural, societal, and legal readjustment.There are many agencies and services that
have emerged to assist the growing numbers of this demographic, to help them settle and make an adjustment
to the traditions, values and lifestyles of their adopted country.

  • 5. W E LCO M E Thank you for purchasing the 2013 Where to Turn Plus! Resource Center staff from King County 2-1-1 (previously the Community Information Line) have been creating Where to Turn directories for more than 25 years! Initially targeted to professionals in social services, our readership has grown to include students, library patrons, receptionists, firefighters, police officers, therapists and human resource managers–anyone who encounters people in need. Knowing where to turn for information about financial assistance, food resources, shelter,andothersocialservicesisimportant.Beingabletorelyontheaccuracyofthatinformation is critical. King County 2-1-1 will continue to step up to the challenge and provide you with tools to meet this need, including our redesigned set of Where to Turn directories for 2013. The original source of directory information is the King County portion of the statewide 2-1-1 Community Resources Online (CRO) database, which is available at www.WA211.org. Resource Center staff ensures the information is accurate by actively pursuing updates from agency contacts, attending meetings, reading newsletters and following up on tips from callers. This sophisticated database is also used by our professional 2-1-1 Information & Referral Specialists in order to provide the highest quality referrals in King County, tailored to the unique circumstances of each caller. If you are unable to locate the information or resource needed in the directory or online, you can call and talk with an Information & Referral Specialist who may be able to help. King County 2-1-1 hours are Monday-Friday, 8am-6pm. To make the most of this resource, bookmark our Resource Talk Blog (www.resourcetalk. crisisclinic.org) or subscribe to the Resource Talk Blog email (www.crisisclinic.org/education/ resource-talk-enewsletter). New information about agencies, services and events is posted daily, and it is advised that you use the updates on the blog to make notes in this directory when you come across information that has changed. Where to Turn directories are designed to be an effective reference tool and we strive to make them as user friendly as possible. Once you’ve become familiar with your directory, please take a moment to respond to our survey. With your input, we’ll be able to make future Where to Turn directory editions even more helpful. The survey will be emailed to you shortly after you receive your order. Our goal at King County 2-1-1 is to provide the community with the most accurate and up-to-date information and to make finding that information as easy as possible. Your community partner, Ryan Peterson Resource Center Supervisor King County 2-1-1 Crisis Clinic © 2013 Crisis Clinic | Where to Turn Plus 5
  • 6. King County 2-1-1 and Specialized Services Do you need local resources to help you: • Pay the rent and feed your family? • Care for a loved one with disabilities? • Find in-home care services? • Find emergency housing? • Enroll in a computer class? • Obtain dental or health care services? • Acquire legal or civil rights assistance? King County 2-1-1 provides expert assistance to people seeking information about community resources. Using a database of more than 6,000 King County services, Information and Referral Specialists can explain how social service systems work, coach callers on how to access community resources and recommend the agencies best able to help. Bed Bank The Bed Bank offers current information on open shelter space at participating local domestic violence shelters. Information is verified once each day and available M-F, after 9:30am. Caregiver Information and Assistance Program Assists unpaid caregivers, ages 18 and older, in identifying and clarifying needs, locating resources and finding support related to caring for an adult, age 18 or older, with a disability or illness. Our Caregiver Specialist provides in-depth support to informal caregivers living in King County who have complex, urgent needs not being met by other providers. Services include care consultation, long-term care planning, advocacy, links to resources and follow-up support. This program has funding available to provide short-term respite services in the home or community for caregivers with emergency needs. Civil Legal Referrals King County 2-1-1 is designated as the entry point for screening and referrals for those seeking free or low-cost civil legal services. Community Resources Online (CRO) The online version of our database is part of a statewide directory of community resources. The search engine lists up-to-date resources, searchable by topic, geographic area, keyword and agency name. www.WA211.org Disability Information and Assistance Program Our Disability Program Specialist is able to help people who are age 18 or over, reside in King County, live independent of a full-time caregiver, and have a more complex situation related to their disability or who may need extra assistance in getting connected to a service provider. We work closely with many disability providers and often know which services are most effective. Emergency Services Brochures and Ex-Offender Re-entry Packets King County 2-1-1 offers downloadable brochures on our website to help connect people with the most critical services in King County. Brochures are updated at least three times per year and often more frequently. The date of the last update is printed on the front of the brochure. Re-entry Packets provide information on resources for anyone currently under supervision by the criminal justice system including anyone with a sex offense on his or her record, as well as anyone experiencing a barrier to a basic need due to a prior conviction or record. Since updates occur regularly, we suggest printing one item at a time or only printing small batches. Resource Talk Blog and Newsletter The Resource Talk blog is the social service news destination for King County and we update it with new resources and information almost every day. It is searchable by keyword or date and provides critical resource changes, community events, feature articles on important health and human service topics and updates to the annual publication of the Where to Turn directory. Subscribe to the blog and get bi-monthly emails with links to the most critical social service changes and events in King County at http://crisisclinic.org/education/resource-talk- enewsletter.

  • 82. 82 © 2013 Crisis Clinic | Where to Turn Plus SERVICES CAREGIVERS A caregiver is an individual who provides help and support on a regular basis to a partner, child, relative, friend or neighbor who is frail, has a physical or mental illness, or disability. More than 70 percent of all caregiving and long-term care services are provided in the home by family caregivers. These unpaid individuals need their own support to maintain personal, physical and emotional well-being. Specialized home and community services are available to residents of King County to provide a needed "time out" for primary caregivers; programs designed to serve adults with disabilities or illnesses may also serve caregivers. Kinship providers, individuals who care for a child under the age of 18 who they are related to through blood, also qualify for services, including respite care in some situations. Caregiver support services are in demand, and some programs may have waiting lists. It is a good idea to be familiar with the respite and caregiver assistance programs in the community before needing them. In King County, many services support caregivers with in-home health care, house cleaning and information about transitioning into assisted living for the people they are caring for. There are many support groups and counseling options available to caregivers in King County, provided by private, volunteer and government-sponsored agencies. When arranging services, have the following information on hand regarding the person needing services: age, telephone number, address and Social Security number, nature of illness or disability, how much and what kind of help may be needed, income and financial resources, ability to pay for care vs. need for subsidized services, health insurance (including name and telephone number of physician) and current services (including name and telephone number of providers). Advocacy and Support Services Sometimes caregivers need professional assistance to determine what services are needed and how to access them. A care manager, outreach specialist or a kinship navigator can meet with a caregiver in their home to assess needs, explore options and develop short- and long-term plans for how those needs can be met. Caregiver Specialists are able to provide information about how to choose a care provider, how to evaluate quality and which kinds of services might be best for a particular situation. In some cases, a care manager may even arrange for services directly and monitor them over time. Alzheimer's Association - Western and Central Washington State Chapter. . . . .

  • 86. 86 © 2013 Crisis Clinic | Where to Turn Plus SERVICES CHEMICAL DEPENDENCY For an individual with a chemical dependency, the process of recovery starts with an assessment to determine the severity of the illness and an appropriate treatment program. Several factors are considered in determining the appropriate type of treatment for individuals in need of help with alcohol or other drug problems. Considerations include type of treatment (inpatient or outpatient), length of program, location of the facility, cost, the presence of other physical or mental health needs and any special program need, such as co-occurring disorder, gender specific or culturally relevant treatment. The American Society of Addiction Medicine provides a framework for assessing individuals with substance abuse problems. When making an assessment, a Chemical Dependency Professional considers intoxication, withdrawal symptoms and potentials, biomedical conditions and complications including tolerance, emotional and behavioral conditions, readiness for change and reasons for quitting, relapse and continued-use potential, and the recovery environment, including family, home and sources of social support. The severity and progression of the substance abuse problem, as well as the presence of a co-existing condition can all impact the individual's ability to begin treatment. Some agencies have set fees; others offer a sliding scale based on ability to pay. The majority of agencies accept private insurance to cover most or all of the cost of treatment. Insurance and HMO plans often require pre-screening and pre-approval before a person enters a treatment program. Many insurance plans maintain a list of preferred providers from which participants must select to access their maximum benefits. In Washington state, individuals who are unemployed and unable to support themselves financially due to chemical dependency may apply for treatment through the DSHS - Community Services Offices. A number of benefit programs are available based on financial need, disability status and diagnoses. Chemical Dependency treatment benefits for individuals who are eligible or enrolled in Medicaid, Medicare or the Alcoholism and Drug Addiction Treatment and Support Act (ADATSA) are available. Referrals to ADATSA are handled through DSHS Community Service Offices. Co-Occurring Disorders Treatment and counseling for individuals who have been diagnosed with mental illness and who also have a chemical dependency problem.

Harm Reduction Addresses an individual whose behavior results in self-harm and/or is destructive to his/her environment, but who is not ready, willing or able to cease the harmful behavior completely. This approach may focus on reducing the inherent risks associated with the behavior by modifying the behavior in any way the individual is motivated to change. For example, an injection drug user may not be interested in stopping injecting drugs, but may be motivated to reduce the risk of transferring a communicable disease by using only clean, unshared syringes; In general, a service provider using a Harm Reduction approach would likely address a chemically dependent individual's needs and concerns without requiring the individual to completely abstain from substance use.

Service is available in the schools, home and community. CHILD ABUSE AND NEGLECT Child abuse and neglect crosses all socioeconomic, racial and geographic boundaries. Physical abuse can include shaking and hitting; sexual abuse can include verbal sexual comments, exposure, sexual touching and penetration. Examples of neglect include failure to provide adequate food, clothing, housing, medical care, nurturing or supervision. Verbal or emotional abuse can include actions like constant criticism, blame, belittlement, verbal threats and/or withholding affection. Children living in homes where domestic violence occurs may also be considered abuse victims, depending on the circumstances. Survivors of childhood maltreatment may experience depression, anxiety, overwhelming negative or hostile feelings, difficulty sustaining interpersonal relationships, and various kinds of self-destructive behavior, including suicidal thoughts or attempts, alcohol and substance abuse. Many of the long-term effects of child abuse and neglect exhibit themselves in adolescence or adulthood. Survivors need a safe, supportive place to begin to heal from their abuse and cultivate healthy connections with others. Crisis Services Help is available 24 hours daily to respond to child abuse and neglect and provide medical evaluation and social service support. In cases of sexual abuse, it is a good idea to call to determine which hospital or clinic is able to perform a medical exam for the abuse. Mandated reporters include child care workers, therapists, healthcare providers and teachers. Reports are required from all professionals who work with children, and are encouraged from all people witnessing or suspecting child abuse or neglect. Any person, who in good faith reports suspected child abuse or neglect, cannot be legally penalized.

Referrals are also made from police departments, health care providers, and social service agencies. Mental Health Services Adverse consequences impact a child's health and development in multiple domains: physical, cognitive, behavioral, social and emotional. It is important for childhood victimization to be addressed as early as possible to help prevent the long-term consequences that may occur if abuse or neglect remains untreated. Thorough evaluation and treatment is essential, as not all children react to abusive or neglectful experiences in the same way. Counseling programs and private therapists provide a safe, supportive place to begin to heal from abuse. The goal of intervention when abuse has occurred is to ensure a child's safety and well-being. In addition, parents can obtain assistance in learning new skills and more appropriate ways of interacting with their children. To achieve these goals, case management and long-term counseling may be required after an initial report of abuse.

CHILD CARE Health and safety standards, staff qualifications, parent communication and the ratio of adults to children are among the requirements for child care licensure in Washington state. There are two types of licensed child care facilities: child care homes, where a professional takes care of children in his or her own home, and child care centers, where providers care for more children in a non-residential location. A wide range in child care expenses can be expected, and cost is often determined by location type of program. Depending on the age of the child, the average cost of care at a licensed child care center ranges from $919-1259, while comparable services offered through a licensed home care facility range from $672-868. Increasingly, social services provided to single parents (such as employment or education programs) either provide child care as a part of the program or assist the parents in finding child care or transportation to child care providers. In many cultures, extended family and community are expected to work together to raise children. This is the most widely used form of child care for infants and toddlers in Washington State. Many families choose to have children cared for by extended family, friends or neighbors because of established bonds of love and trust. Parentshaveconfidencethattheirchildrenwillbesafeandtheirvalues,languageandculturestrengthened.Care can be provided in the child's or caregiver's home and can be a legal form of care under certain circumstances, C H I L D A B U S E A N D N E G L E C T: M E N TA L H E A LT H S E R V I C E S

DISABILITIES The Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 guarantees equal access to employment, public accommodations, transportation, telecommunications and state and local government services for the more than 56 million people with disabilities living in the United States. A person is considered to have a disability if he or she has a physical or mental impairment that substantially limits one or more activities of daily living. More than 250,000 people with disabilities live in King County. There are a number of agencies in King County that specifically serve people with disabilities and their families. Services may include early intervention, financial assistance, employment training, assistive technology, travel training, in-home support, information and referral, advocacy and legal assistance.

DOMESTIC VIOLENCE Domestic violence is a pattern of controlling and coercive behavior used by one or both partners in an intimate relationship such as marriage, dating, family, friends or cohabitation. Domestic Violence may involve any combination of physical, sexual, emotional or verbal abuse and often isolates the abused person, diminishing their sense of inner strength, feelings of self-worth and the ability to make personal choices. The emotional and mental abuse some victims experience may actually cause them to feel that what is happening to them is their fault. According to the Centers for Disease Control, Approximately 1.3 million women and 835,000 men are physically assaulted by an intimate partner annually in the United States. Domestic Violence affects every community, regardless of ethnic group, culture or background. People of all ages, income levels, faiths, sexual orientation, gender and education levels experience domestic violence. These statistics and patterns have given rise to a variety of services for people experiencing abuse. Batterer Intervention Programs Programs that offer classes or groups, sponsor victim panels or provide other interventions which help domestic violence offenders understand and take responsibility for their acts of violence and abuse. Services can be accessed on a voluntary basis, but most batterers access such programs only when they are court-ordered to do so.

Over the course of a lifetime a person with a bachelor’s degree will earn on average about twice as much as a person with only a high school diploma. Students who drop out of high school are twice as likely to live in poverty, three times more likely to be unemployed and eight times more likely to be in jail or prison than high school graduates. In Washington state, the high school graduation rate was 76.6 percent in the 2011-12 school year. Many services are available to help students stay in school and continue on to higher education. Each school district has a liaison that ensures that youth experiencing homelessness have the opportunity to succeed in school by organizing transportation to their school of origin or assisting them with enrollment in their local school without delay. Also provides referrals to health care, dental, mental health and other appropriate services. Homeless students cannot be penalized for infractions, such as absenteeism, that relate to their homelessness. Adult Basic Education Offers remedial education for adults, mostly in reading and math.

School Districts Under the McKinney-Vento act, students must be allowed to attend their school of origin "to the extent feasible." Factors that may be considered include: the age of the child or youth; the impact the commute may have on the student's education; personal safety issues; the student's need for special instruction; length of anticipated stay in temporary shelter or other temporary location; and time remaining in the school year. District boundaries are not a factor in the decision. Homeless students also have the right to be enrolled in their local school "immediately" even if they do not have a parent or guardian, proof of residency, immunization records, school records or other documents normally required to enroll in school. Once students are enrolled, the liaison must help students get records from the last school and any medical records.

FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE For many King County residents, cost of living is outpacing income, leaving households with the difficult task of prioritizing the payment of numerous monthly bills. Many households find it impossible to pay rent or utility bills for a period of time—especially when events like medical expenses, illness without paid leave, layoffs and divorce/separation occur. Although many agencies in King County provide emergency assistance for rent and/ or utility expenses, the need for assistance far exceeds the funds available. If these bills cannot be paid in full, residents should contact their landlord or utility company to try to negotiate a payment plan before eviction or disconnection occurs. Households may also consider lessening their household expenses by postponing non- essential purchases; applying for food benefits and/or visiting local food pantries; negotiating bill extensions; selling extra or unneeded household items; and asking family, friends or local religious institutions for help.

  • 177. © 2013 Crisis Clinic | Where to Turn Plus 177 SERVICES FOOD With the recent economic downturn, more individuals and families in our communities than ever are relying on food banks and meal programs to secure the food they need to survive. Even before this most recent economic crisis, 10.1 percent of households in Washington state were hungry or unsure of the source of their next meal. In fiscal year 2009, food banks across King County distributed 30.7 million pounds of food to over 260,000 hungry people. During the same year, King County's meal programs and shelters served over three million meals and snacks. By the end of 2010, food banks experienced their largest spike in demand in 30 years ago. As 40 to 51 percent of people in the region have to choose between paying for food, heat, medical care, or rent, a number of government and non-profit agencies offer programs to mitigate that choice and help alleviate hunger. In addition to local food banks and meal programs, state and federal government programs are a significant source of food assistance. Baby Food Baby food is often offered at food pantries, and called "baby cupboards." Most, but not all baby cupboards offer formula and baby food jars. Often food cupboards will offer diapers and other infant items as well.

GLBTQI Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual,Transgender, Questioning/Queer and Intersex (GLBTQI) people belong to a cultural group that has historically faced significant discrimination and violence. GLBTQI people encounter institutional lack of understanding within health care, social service, education and other systems. In response, many agencies in the King County area exist specifically to serve GLBTQI communities, and others have expanded their services to include cultural competence with GLBTQI clients. Individuals who identify as GLBTQI are not yet protected federally against discrimination. Washington State, however, does prohibit discrimination on the basis of sexual orientationandgenderidentityinhousing,employment,publicaccommodations,credit,lendingandinsurance. Malicious harassment based on sexual orientation and gender identity is also illegal in Washington, and school districts must, by law, ban bullying, harassment and intimidation on the basis of sexual orientation. On February 13, 2012, Washington Governor Christine Gregoire signed a same-sex marriage bill that had been passed by both houses of the state legislature. Voters approved the legislation in a referendum held on November 6, 2012. The law took effect on December 6 and the first marriages were celebrated on December 9, 2012. Advocacy and Support Services Organizations that support the passage and enforcement of laws and other social means that protect and promote the rights and interests of the GLBTQI community, or people who are in the process of coming out or are questioning their sexual orientation or gender identity.

HEALTH CARE Charity Care, a program established under state law, requires hospitals to provide medical care for free or at a reduced cost if the recipient of the care isn’t able to pay fully for the services received after exhausting any other available health care coverage. Charity Care covers both inpatient and outpatient hospital services; however, it may not cover services by medical personnel who aren’t considered part of the hospital’s medical staff (including radiologists or anesthesiologists not employed by the hospital). Anyone whose income is at or below 100 percent of the Federal Poverty Level is entitled to free care. Anyone whose income is between 100 percent and 200 percent is entitled to reduced cost care based on a sliding scale. However, as part of national health reform, Washington state will have an easily accessible, central marketplace for individuals, families and small businesses to buy health insurance beginning in 2014. Subsidies will be availabletohelpthoseunabletoaffordinsurance.Additionally, Medicaidwillbeexpandedtoincludeindividuals between the ages of 19 up to 65 (parents, and adults without dependent children) with incomes up to 138% FPL based on modified adjusted gross income. This will affect the more than 282,000 projected uninsured residents of King County. Nearly 80,000 of those would qualify for the Medicaid expansion and nearly 118,000 would qualify for subsidies. The Washington State Health Care Authority is coordinating the implementation plan. Adult Day Health Specialized social and health programs are available to serve people with physical disabilities and/or cognitive impairments, providing social and recreational activities for participants, as well as respite to caregivers. Some programs meet once or twice a week while others are open weekdays, up to 10 hours a day; some locations also offer services on weekends. Fees vary, and full or partial funding may be available for individuals on low or fixed incomes.

HOMELESS RESOURCES More than 8,000 people are homeless on any given night in King County.This includes over 2,500 people staying in emergency shelter, nearly 3,400 in temporary transitional housing, and more than 2,700 people counted outdoors during the 2013 One Night Count of homeless people. In a recent King County survey conducted by United Way, 24 percent of respondents have either been homeless or had a family member experiencing homelessness. Caused by many factors, including poverty; the lack of affordable housing, particularly for people with disabilities, seniors, and people working low wage jobs; divorce, domestic violence and lack of family supports; chronic health problems; mental illness; chemical abuse and dependency; and catastrophic events may all contribute to homelessness. Some people are homeless due to life situations and need temporary assistance to re-stabilize their lives; others have long-term mental or physical health issues that have led to chronic homelessness and need more intensive help to reclaim their lives. A network of programs addresses the effects of homelessness and works to prevent residents from becoming homeless in the future.

HOUSING By federal standards, housing is considered affordable when monthly rents or mortgage payments (plus utilities) cost no more than 30 percent of a household’s monthly income. According to a 2011 report by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, more than 132,000 [Washington] households are extremely low income and have severe rent burdens - meaning they earn less than about $19,000 a year for a family of three and pay more than half their income for rent and utilities. In King County, locating and maintaining affordable housing is a predominant problem for households; with steadily increasing rents, mortgage costs and apartment-to-condominium conversions among the factors affecting households of varying incomes. A number of government and non-profit developers throughout King County offer subsidized and low-cost housing options for low- to moderate-income tenants and homebuyers, largely through subsidies and tax credits from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), but also through state, county and municipal funds. Due to the region’s high demand for affordable housing, however, these programs’waiting lists can range from a few months to several years.

  • 256. 256 © 2013 Crisis Clinic | Where to Turn Plus SERVICES IMMIGRANT/REFUGEE Immigrants are individuals who have fled their native country and have been given official permission by the government to settle permanently in another country. In the United States, refugee status is given to people who are unwilling or unable to return to their country of nationality because of persecution based on the individuals’race, religion, nationality, membership in a particular social group or political opinion. U.S. Census data reports that 20.1% of King County’s population or about 383,000 people were born outside of the United States. Of those, about 203,000 are not U.S. citizens. According to Office of Immigration Statistics (Department of Homeland Security), a total of 56,384 persons were admitted to the United States as refugees during 2011. As lawful permanent residents, refugees (and asylees) have the right to own property, attend public schools, join certain branches of the US Armed Forces, travel internationally without a visa, and, if certain requirements are met, apply for US citizenship. However, immigrants and refugees may be eligible for, but are having difficulty understanding and/or obtaining access to, government-sponsored entitlement programs and social services including housing programs, employment assistance and job training, medical assistance, and other government entitlements. Many arrive to this country suffering from post-traumatic stress, multiple losses and enormous difficulties in cultural, societal, and legal readjustment.There are many agencies and services that have emerged to assist the growing numbers of this demographic, to help them settle and make an adjustment to the traditions, values and lifestyles of their adopted country.
