June 13-19, 2007
 
$25 mill should do it
 
 
On June 12, the United Way of King County announced a campaign to raise $25 million over the next two years to end chronic homeless in King County. The campaign would fund housing for as many as 1,000 chronically homeless people and will do so outside of already existing government programs, says Anita Kelley, the agency’s communications director. The housing will include social services. Approximately 2,000 of King County’s estimated 9,500 homeless people are chronically homeless.
