Safe Harbors is King County’s Web-based Homeless Management
Information System (HMIS) used to measure the extent of homelessness in
our community. Data collected is used to create statements of need to
funders at the local, state and federal level through a variety of
reports created from the information collected by our partner programs.
Safe Harbors is managed by the City of Seattle’s
Human Services
Department, and is a joint project of the City, King
County’s Department of Community and Human Services, and United
Way of King County. Safe Harbors is a key partner in the
Ten-Year Plan
to End Homelessness in King County.
Safe Harbors was fully implemented in January 2007 and is being used in
emergency shelters, transitional and permanent housing programs as well
as supportive service and homeless prevention programs that receive
public funding.
