]]> Safe parking programs help address the unique needs of vehicle residents, one prominent segment of the unhoused population using their vehicle as a place of personal refuge and shelter. Vehicle residents make up a significant portion of King County’s total unsheltered population — 42% in 2017. These programs use existing public or privately-owned parking infrastructure to provide vehicle residents with a safe, reliable, and legal place to park.

Safe parking programs exist in several locations on the Eastside, however there appear to be gaps in providing services to men, families and people with pets. The benefits of community and relationships can be life-changing and critical in the path to stable housing. The city is interested in evaluation of current resources and providers, research of best practices for “safe-parking lots,” outreach to faith communities, and outreach to the community to determine whether a safe-parking lot approach could address needs for both shelter and safe and livable community.

]]> Obtain and analyze data from the Adult Detention Center (ADC) to gain a better understanding of the health needs of individuals at the facility, propose strategies and interventions to reduce the prevalence of unmet health needs, and improve outcomes to realize Ramsey County’s vision of a community where all are valued and thrive.
