Who We Are
As an advocate, broker, and convener of and for our members, the Housing Development Consortium of Seattle-King County has supported and inspired our 215+ member organizations for nearly four decades. From the beginning, we’ve believed that housing is the foundation for healthy, successful, and equitable communities.
HDC strives to create a more robust and connected sector that can better respond to our region’s incredible housing need. Nationally recognized as a leader in affordable housing advocacy, we believe that large-scale social change—the kind needed to address our most urgent regional challenges—comes from effective sector-wide coordination rather than from the isolated efforts of individual organizations.
HDC is a movement. The future we aim to build, one wherein all people can live with dignity in safe, healthy, and affordable homes across King County, is only possible through organizations, government agencies, and businesses coming together around shared values and a commitment to the community—and the need for this work has never been greater.
Our Vision
All people throughout King County live with dignity in safe, healthy, and affordable homes
Our Mission
Build, sustain, and inspire a diverse network committed to producing, preserving, and increasing equitable access to affordable homes
