Clare's Place is managed by Catholic Housing and Community Services.
Clare’s Place provides 65 units of permanent supportive housing for chronically homeless and vulnerable households in Snohomish County. Catholic Community Services of Western Washington provides the supportive services to the residents, with a focus on long-term stability. Clare’s Place is another housing choice for chronically homeless households that have difficulty finding and qualifying for housing in the private market and that are seeking a supportive community. We walk with our residents, inviting them to direct their energy and gifts toward the experiences and the issues that have contributed to their life challenges, and to move to an improved and more stable living situation.
Since this property has received funding in part through the Low Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) program, a certain number of units are set aside for lower income households. Households must earn either less than 50% or 60% of the area median income (depending on the set-aside option chosen by the property owner) to qualify for these units. Rents in these units are capped at a maximum of 30% of the set-aside area median income (adjusted for unit size). Some rental units in this property may not be subject to LIHTC and therefore have higher rents and no maximum household income requirement.
