Introducing Our 3-Year Strategic Plan

PorchLight’s three-year Strategic Plan is the culmination of collaborative efforts between our board members, executive director, and senior leadership team. As a beacon of hope and support within our community, PorchLight’s commitment to fostering positive change and enhancing the lives of those we serve resonates in the vision for this comprehensive roadmap. This mission-aligned plan was developed after evaluating resources, identifying key priorities, and analyzing the evolving landscape of homelessness in East King County. It will be used to guide our efforts to meet growing needs, secure a solid foundation, and support positive change.

We have established four strategic objectives with specific goals to meet each one.
