We do this through a variety of direct services, faith community involvement, education and advocacy. Areas of service include housing and shelter resources, services to homeless and at-risk population, recruiting landlords to provide affordable housing, managing rental assistance to landlords, creating shared housing opportunities, mobilizing volunteers to paint homes and prepare free income taxes, providing payee and mail services, and convening interfaith conversations and services. 0 0 1473621 699681 1459658 Family Permanent Housing - A rapid rehousing intervention that accepts families who present complex barriers, and sleep on the streets, in their car, or in a shelter. Using a "Housing First" model, each family is considered as ready and deserving of the basic need of housing without prerequisites. FPH successfully cultivates local landlords to work with us to house high-barrier households. Each family gets into a rental unit within the first 30 days of program entry and is provided rent and assistance while the family works with a case manager on goals they identify (e.g. education, employment, etc.). In fye 9/30/23, FPH housed 79 families comprised of 228 individuals. 1405547 538672 1411306 Coordinated Entry System - Providing countywide intake, screening and referral to subsidized housing for homeless families and individuals and those who are receiving state benefits for Housing and Essential Needs. 3,466 households were served in the fiscal year ended (fye) 9/30/23. 1241211 1091156 1045494 COVID 19 and other assistance - AM received an outpouring of donations and grant funding to assist community members suffering economic and other hardships arising from COVID 19. This work was added to the work of the Community Resource Connection Center (CRCC) which also provides an essential part of establishing permanent housing and employment-securing appropriate identifying documents (identification cards, birth certificates, and social security cards). Appropriate documentation is an eligibility requirement for all County- and State-funded housing programs; without appropriate documents, households are denied entry into the program and cannot receive services. The CRCC has been able to innovatively break down that barrier for families experiencing homelessness. In fye 9/30/23, AM issued 415 rent and utility assistance checks averaging $3,665. 384066 165369 370237 Landlord Liaison Program - Recruiting for-profit landlords to provide affordable housing units to households experiencing homelessness. The program includes outreach and partnership with landlords, incentives for providing affordable housing, and education for tenants. 363600 13542 236529 Shared Housing Services - Engaging community members to open their homes to adults and youth who are without housing and of limited means. Adults are matched with homeowners so that both parties benefit via housing provided by the homeowner and services or assistance offered by the home-seeker. Youth are also matched based on compatibility and the homeowner receives a small rent reimbursement. 173876 0 71696 Volunteer Income Tax Assistance - Part of a collaboration of partners led by Associated Ministries with the Internal Revenue Service, working to actively engage Pierce County residents in building prosperity.

Homeless No More is focused on outreach into the community, primarily via the faith community, to become informed about homelessness and inspired to become part of the solution. Speakers from throughout the homeless system come to provide insight and to discuss ways in which faith communities and people of social good will can work together to end family homelessness. 98414 0 77239 Paint Tacoma Beautiful - Painting and minor repairing of homes for low-income, elderly or disabled homeowners in Pierce County annually using all-volunteer crews from churches, synagogues, businesses, government agencies, military units, service organizations and clubs, non-profit organizations, etc. With Covid restrictions lifted, the program returned to painting 24 households in fye 9/30/23. 1416603 305565 1029658 5536982 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 1 0 0 1 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 9 0 1 59 1 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 10 10 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 X X Molly E Archer 2534261504 901 S 13th St Tacoma WA 98405 Michael Yoder Executive Director 50 0 X X 131071 0 26931 Molly Archer Chief Operating Officer 50 0 X X 117514 0 21014 Valorie Crout Chief Program Officer 50 0 X X 107356 0 19886 Diane Powers President 4 0 X X 0 0 0 Carolyn Read Secretary 2 0 X X 0 0 0 Gary Gessel President-Elect 4 0 X X 0 0 0 Craig Huish Treasurer 3 0 X X 0 0 0 Ahlmahz Negash Board Member 1 0 X 0 0 0 Ron Martinez Board Member 1 0 X 0 0 0 Malando Redeemer Board Member 1 0 X 0 0 0 Keren Gorban Board Member 1 0 X 0 0 0 Yuni Medlin Board Member 1 0 X 0 0 0 Candy Watkins Board Member 1 0 X 0 0 0 355941 0 67831 3 0 1 0 0 63821 0 42031 0 700890 622651 39175 1429393 Family Permanent Housing 624220 1472300 1472300 0 0 Coordinated Entry Services 624220 1411306 1411306 0 0 COVID 19 and other assistance 624230 1045494 1045494 0 0 Landlord Liaison Program 624220 370237 370237 0 0 Shared Housing Services 624220 236526 236526 0 0 410253 410253 0 0 4946116 4937 0 0 4937 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 30305 42031 7724 22581 0 22581 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 447 447 0 0 447 6403474 4946563 0 27518 126355 126355 2508719 2508719 0 0 0 0 439863 353624 40648 45591 0 0 0 0 1981322 1774593 100019 106710 30939 27414 1519 2006 201399 180310 12391 8698 180182 160006 9845 10331 0 0 0 0 798 433 335 30 29425 26334 2275 816 0 0 0 0 0 0 1433 0 1433 0 91506 70518 19998 990 5627 4803 422 402 47966 28255 5312 14399 116482 97692 10851 7939 0 0 0 0 120226 78719 40920 587 10769 9256 523 990 0 0 0 0 8179 6474 543 1162 9227 7288 1427 512 0 0 0 0 36935 2963 33764 208 28993 7848 20594 551 Program Supplies 66812 65378 1119 315 6043157 5536982 303938 202237 260401 231840 171743 245949 21945 12197 1294501 1357852 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 21487 35741 1163397 564078 513512 599319 307529 454280 0 0 0 0 0 0 151381 179914 2742499 3117092 164918 107999 0 0 0 0 0 0 142724 167738 0 0 166147 153070 0 0 5083 2824 478872 431631 X 2064402 2505818 199225 179643 2263627 2685461 2742499 3117092 360317 0 61517 0 0 0 X 0 1 1 1 1 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 0 0 224608 0 37254 0 0 0 261862 240059 0 -15451 0 0 0 224608 226365 0 13694 0 0 0 240059 206279 0 21624 0 0 1538 226365 222256 0 9734 0 24166 1545 206279 0.71 0 0.29 0 0 0 9542 9542 0 232070 216916 15154 0 797432 240381 557051 0 58478 45301 13177 0 65875 61480 4395 599319 Payee Accounts 179914 179914 0 Lease Incentives 2824 2824 6524624 59952 61198 0 0 121150 6403474 0 0 0 6403474 6104763 61198 0 0 408 61606 6043157 0 0 0 6043157 Schedule D, Part V, Line 4 The Associated Ministries Board of Directors established the board-restricted quasi-endowment funds to provide funding for new program initiatives and support the agency's operations as determined to be appropriate by the Board.
