Advocate for Affordable Housing Bellwether has collaborated with state officials and other housing and service providers to increase future opportunities for affordable apartments. See below for ways that you can help to advocate with us for better laws and policies for affordable housing. Our Upcoming Advocacy Priorities Mobilize support for the renewal of the Seattle Housing Levy in 2023. Pass an Eastside Housing Levy in 2022, creating a new fund. Mobilize for a transformational 2023 Comprehensive Plan in City of Seattle so apartments can be built in all neighborhoods served by frequent transit. Pass the federal Affordable Housing Credit Improvement Act of 2021 . This bipartisan bill would dramatically increase federal support for developing new affordable housing. Increase State funding of the Housing Trust Fund and establish a permanent funding source for it. Our Advocacy Agenda Expand resources for housing at the local, state, and federal level. Increase housing density so more homes can be built near transit and in high opportunity neighborhoods in urban King County. Lower development and ownership costs to speed housing development and decrease operating costs. Preserve and expand other supports for the most vulnerable people in our communities, such as rental assistance, emergency eviction moratoriums, vouchers, and other service programs. Improve long term sustainability of our work and the work of other nonprofit housing and human service organizations Housing Policy Wins Housing Policy Wins 2021 City of Seattle Allocated $49.2M from the American Rescue Plan funds for housing and homelessness services. This included $1M to support resident services in non-permanent supportive housing. Rezoned properties owned by faith-based organizations. Allows for extra height and density in return for homes for households with incomes under 60% AMI (Annual Median Income). Renamed “single-family zoning” to “neighborhood residential zoning,” in advance of major rezoning in the 2023 Comprehensive Plan. King County Acquired over 850 homes for chronically homeless people through the Health Through Housing 0.1% sales tax. Another 750 homes will be purchased. State of Washington Legislature Allocated $175M for the Housing Trust Fund . Allocated $120M for Shelter Rapid Acquisition ; a new fund to acquire hotels, motels, and multifamily housing for use as emergency shelter and permanent supportive housing. Amended the housing element of the Growth Management Act . This sets the stage for major Comprehensive Plan updates by cities and counties in 2023 (HB 1220). Funded $42M in grants for utility connections for affordable housing developments. Focuses on rural and suburban areas with limited existing utility infrastructure. Enacted a $100 document recording fee. This funds $280M in rental assistance and operations for permanent supportive housing. Funded housing through the operating budget at a historic level: $130M for Housing and Essential Needs $187M for foreclosure prevention; $37M for operations, maintenance, and services for permanent supportive housing; $20M for long-term vouchers for people with behavioral health or substance abuse disorders. Passed a bill to create a soft landing for the eviction moratorium (SB 5160). This creates a legal right to counsel for tenants facing eviction, requires payment plans for past due rent, and extends some emergency pandemic protections. Federal The federal government allocated $21.5 billion for rental assistance through the American Rescue Plan Act, helping low-income renters stay in their homes. 2020 Local Seattle passed the JumpStart payroll tax, which will raise over $214 million per year, mostly for affordable housing at 0-50% Area Median Income. King County passed the Health Through Housing 0.1% sales tax, which will generate $60 million per year to provide housing for up to 2,000 chronically homeless people. State Housing Trust Fund was funded at a historically high level. Affordable housing and homelessness resources included in the final budgets totaled $174 million. SHB 1590 passed, providing cities and counties the ability to implement the local sales and use tax for affordable housing councilmanically (see Health Through Housing above). SHB 2343 passed, expanding the list of planning actions that cities are encouraged to take to increase residential building capacity. SHB 2384 passed, expanding the property tax exemption for affordable housing providers. $5 million allocated for the Housing Needs Pilot Program to provide rent assistance to elderly or disabled adults on Supplemental Security Income Federal CARES Act funded $100 billion in rental assistance. December 2020 COVID relief omnibus funded an additional $25 billion for rental assistance, to be disbursed in 2021. Established a minimum 4% rate for the 4% Low Income Housing Tax Credit at 4% (has ranged between 3% and 3.3% since 2012), effectively expanding tax credit equity by one-third.

Centering Residents Equitable Housing BIPOC Partnerships Equitable Employer The Data Anti-Racism Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Our Commitment to Anti-Racism Since 2016, Bellwether has been bringing racial justice to the forefront of our work. Our equity work has included four broad initiatives: 1. Becoming an equitable employer 2. Supporting and partnering with Black, Indigenous, People of Color (BIPOC) leaders, organizations, and businesses 3. Centering our residents 4. Equitable housing development. A primary element of all these initiatives has been our employee Equity Committee , which was formed in 2016 to lead on some of these initiatives, provide perspective to the leadership team and others, and challenge Bellwether’s existing approaches to each of these things. Members of this committee represent all levels, all departments, and many racial backgrounds within the organization. Anti-Racism Equitable Employer Our Equity Committee has called Bellwether to put significant attention to making sure that our employees, particularly our BIPOC employees, have access to opportunities for growth and advancement within the organization. Education, training, and opportunities for advancement Several years ago, Bellwether established an educational advancement fund that gives employees seeking training or certification for a higher-level position within Bellwether up to $1,500 toward the cost of that training. This is in addition to a $2,000 annual training budget per employee to pay for the cost of any training or education to serve them in their current position. We created a formal compensation philosophy and transparent pay scale, showing the pay ranges for all jobs. We analyzed our compensation practices and fixed pay disparities that reflected racial or gender bias. We stopped asking for and using pay history as the basis for salary offers. We re-evaluated job requirements to eliminate education or experience requirements that were unnecessary barriers for historically marginalized populations. We changed our retirement profit-sharing program, which occurs in years when the organization has an excess of cash flow, from one that was paid out as a percentage of income to one that is equal for all employees, regardless of pay, removing a practice that exacerbated pay disparity within the organization. When the COVID-19 pandemic required front-line workers to be onsite, a majority of whom are BIPOC, we were the first housing organization in Seattle to enact an ongoing daily equity stipend to compensate them. We aggressively invest in benefits for our employees, giving employees at all levels access to great health care benefits and making significant contributions to employee retirement funds. Equitable pay and benefits Bellwether created a staff-driven Equity Committee in 2016. The Equity Committee is made up of employees from many functions within the organization, and its purposes are to: Hold Bellwether leaders accountable to our equity pillars (listed below) Partner with Bellwether’s leadership in building a diverse, inclusive, fair and equitable workplace Enhance employee understanding of Bellwether’s equity commitment and work Serve as a conduit for employees at all levels of the organization to have input into and influence over that work Bellwether’s equity pillars are: Create and operate our housing in a manner that dignifies our residents and gives them access to the resources and opportunities they need to thrive Center our residents in everything we do Build a diverse workforce, provide equitable compensation and internal policies, create equitable opportunities for professional development and advancement and promote a workplace culture that respects and celebrates all identities Support and partner with organizations and businesses lead by and/or serving Black, Indigenous and People of Color, persons with disabilities and members of the LGBTQ+ community Equity Committee Equitable Employer Supporting & Partnering with BIPOC Community Leaders, Organizations & Businesses Partnerships Bellwether has built important, new partnerships with BIPOC organizations to build the capacity of those organizations, better serve our residents and communities, and learn new ways to approach our own work. We have raised money to construct two childcare facilities operated by BIPOC organizations (El Centro de la Raza and Empowering Youth and Families Outreach) that serve lower-income children and focus on BIPOC families. We are working with Muslim Housing Services to build their new headquarters and program space in our new Flourish on Rainier development. This partnership is structured to allow MHS to become the owner of this space in 15 years. And we have entered into a joint venture with the Chief Seattle Club to build 200 units of affordable housing prioritized for lower income Native American families and a longhouse to honor Native education and cultural practices, all on the campus of the North Seattle College. Procurement Bellwether strives to hire BIPOC retailers, restaurants, suppliers, and contractors whenever possible. We are working with general contractors to get at least 15% WMBE sub-contractors on every job site. On this project, we aim to achieve 20% WMBE contractors. In 2022, we will hire a full-time procurement specialist who will help us focus on BIPOC suppliers for our building, office, and maintenance supplies. Board Membership Our board members have experience in affordable housing, law, public relations, business management, real estate (including real estate-related services such as property management, development, and finance), and the tech sector. Our board members value lived experience: one board member has experienced homelessness, one board member lived in affordable housing, and another has experience as an immigrant. Currently, Bellwether's 15-member board is 60% women and 34% people of color. Every member of the board has demonstrated a commitment to furthering the mission of affordable housing. Three of our board members' professional careers have been devoted to developing multifamily housing in urban markets. Three members bring professional experience in affordable housing. BIPOC Partnerships Centering Residents At its core, our work is rooted in race and social justice. Nearly 60% of our residents identify as BIPOC. The average income of a Bellwether household is less than 40% of the area median income. One of the pillars of our strategic plan is ensuring that our residents receive the customer service and support they need to thrive in our housing and that they are involved in informing our policies, practices, and developments. We have also worked to rid our organization of unnecessary barriers to housing that perpetuate institutional injustices. Lowering barriers to housing Over the past several years, Bellwether has been making significant changes in its leasing policies and processes to make our housing accessible to as many households as possible. We have changed everything from how we look at criminal backgrounds and debt owed to past landlords to unnecessary or redundant documentation requirements that have historically permeated our sector. Lowering barriers to housing has allowed us to serve more households coming out of homelessness, families and individuals connected with the criminal justice system and other households excluded by typical landlord screening criteria, all of whom are disproportionately BIPOC. We work closely with organizations such as the Housing Connector, LEAD/Reach, King County Vets, Muslim Housing Services and Mary’s Place to successfully house these residents. Today, nearly 30% of new households come out of homelessness or the criminal justice system. Increasing our resident services team As Bellwether has grown, lowered barriers to housing and served more complex populations, the need for our resident services program has increased. This program receives minimal public funding support, yet our resident service coordinators are critical to ensuring residents are stable, children and their families have the support they need to thrive, and our elders and disabled residents have the supports they need to stay healthy and age in place. Bellwether has committed to expanding its fund development capacity so we can expand our resident services program. Centering Residents Equitable Housing Development Prevent Displacement Bellwether launched an aggressive initiative to acquire at least 850 homes in South King County. Bellwether is targeting neighborhoods and buildings that are predominantly occupied by families of color and are highly vulnerable to large rent increases in the coming years, as transit and gentrification arrives in these southern suburbs. Build in Neighborhoods of Opportunity Since 2016, Bellwether has targeted new development in neighborhoods that have incredible access to transit, public services such as libraries, parks and good schools, and allow for strong ties to community supports such as YMCA’s, Boys & Girls Clubs, community centers, health care facilities and food banks. We have developed or are developing in Queen Anne, Roosevelt, the University District, First Hill, Bitterlake and Rainier Beach. House Families While Bellwether’s resident population overall is a majority BIPOC, our larger households with children are nearly 80% families of color. And low-income families have fewer housing options than any other population in Seattle. Since 2016, Bellwether has prioritized the development of 2-, 3- and 4-bedroom units to create as many options as possible for low-income families. Although these units are more challenging to develop and operate, Bellwether believes it is imperative that our community be a place in which lower income families – particularly BIPOC families - can thrive. Nearly 40% of the units we currently have under development are family-sized units. Engage Communities Over the past several years, Bellwether has significantly increased its community engagement activities – both as a new developer entering a community and as an operator of housing once we have become part of a neighborhood. We engage with neighbors, non-profit organizations, churches, schools and businesses that represent neighborhood interests. We invite these community members to understand our mission and inform our plans. We ask them to hold us accountable as a good neighbor. And we engage them as supports for our current and future residents.

Mission History Approach Future About Bellwether We create stable communities and access to opportunity through affordable housing. Mission Mission & Vision Bellwether Housing creates stable communities and access to opportunity through affordable housing. We develop and manage homes for people with limited incomes near job centers, transit, and services. We amplify our impact by helping other organizations in the Puget Sound region do the same. We envision diverse communities where people of all incomes and backgrounds share in the prosperity of our region. Photo: Bellwether Staff circa 1990 Timeline History History Bellwether Housing was founded in 1980 to create housing in downtown Seattle so city workers could live close to their jobs. After over 40 years of success and growth, Bellwether is the Puget Sound region's largest nonprofit affordable housing provider. Today Bellwether apartments are home to approximately 5,000 residents (and counting). Bellwether continues to lead the affordable housing industry in finding innovative ways to build strong, healthy communities within its own portfolio and on behalf of other nonprofit organizations. We have developed thousands of apartment homes and numerous community facilities as a development consultant for other nonprofits. Our Approach As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, Bellwether Housing builds and manages high quality affordable housing so that people of diverse backgrounds and incomes thrive in urban King County’s high-cost housing market. As the Puget Sound region’s largest nonprofit affordable housing provider, Bellwether Housing serves 5,000 residents annually in 3,000 apartments. Our 35 buildings (and counting!) are near workplaces, schools, childcare, and community amenities in vibrant, transit-rich neighborhoods. We serve families large and small, households recovering from homelessness, seniors, immigrants, preschool teachers and social workers, and young people just starting out. Living at Bellwether, residents gain access to the resources and prosperity of their surrounding communities and, in turn, cultivate a more inclusive and equitable city. To meet the intense need for affordable housing in the region, we plan to build and acquire more homes every year. Since 2016, Bellwether has targeted new development in neighborhoods that have incredible access to transit, public services such as libraries, parks, and excellent schools, and allow for strong ties to community supports such as YMCA’s, Boys & Girls Clubs, community centers, health care facilities and food banks. We have developed or are developing in Queen Anne, Roosevelt, the University District, First Hill, Bitter Lake and Rainier Beach. Bellwether’s resident are majority BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, People of Color), and our larger households with children are nearly 80% families of color. Low-income families have fewer housing options than any other population in Seattle. Since 2016, Bellwether has prioritized the development of 2-, 3- and 4-bedroom apartments to create as many options as possible for low-income families. Although these larger apartments are more challenging to develop and operate, Bellwether believes it is imperative that our community be a place in which lower income families – particularly BIPOC families - can thrive. Our apartment communities include resident amenity areas, such as community rooms, outdoor play spaces, gardens, and laundry; and attentive on-site management. Our on-site resident services program connects residents with the resources, services, benefits, and community relationships they need to thrive. Future Looking forward, Bellwether continues to integrate four decades of success with innovative and pioneering development approaches to make housing in our region more accessible, inclusive, and affordable to all. In the next five years, we plan to build or acquire new apartments, grow our organization to maintain and operate these new units, and continue to embed anti-racism into our organization's culture and work.
