2025 Endorsements

The Washington Housing Alliance Action Fund helps elect candidates who champion public policy that prevents and ends homelessness and moves us toward a time when everyone in Washington can live in a safe, healthy, affordable home. 

Our process: 

Candidates completing questionnaires by June 22 will be considered for endorsements to be announced in early July. Other requests will be considered on a rolling basis.

Completing the questionnaire does not guarantee we will make an endorsement in your race. We appreciate your interest and the time it takes to respond to questionnaires. You may reach out to discuss the potential for us to endorse in your race by contacting info@housingactionfund.org.

In addition to this questionnaire, our process may include background research on your past work, talking with people and organizations in your community, and may also include an interview.

Apply for our endorsement by completing a questionnaire here
