A Regional Coalition for Housing (ARCH)

Visit website

ARCH is a voluntary organization in suburban Seattle created in 1992 to establish a collaborative approach to solving local housing issues. Three cities and King County started ARCH, which has now grown to include 15 cities and the county. Members pool financial resources through a joint Housing Trust Fund, share best practices, and coordinate planning efforts. ARCH has served as an inspiration for MPC’s work on interjurisdictional housing strategies.
