  • Seattle Report
    EPA: CARE Level I Final Report International District CARE Project Community elder shares her perspectives at the first CARE partner meeting, 2005 Better Housing, Happier Lives, Stronger Communities _____________________________________________________________________________________________ 606 Maynard Avenue South, Suite 105 . Seattle WA 98104 . Tel (206) 623-5132 . Fax: (206) 623-3479 . www.idhousingalliance.org Grantee: International District Housing Alliance Project location: Seattle’s Chinatown-International District, Seattle, WA – King County Project title: International District CARE Project Grant period: October 1, 2005 to September 30, 2007 Project Manager: Joyce Pisnanont EPA Project Officer: Sally Hanft Personal Reflection: Reflecting on the past two years of the ID CARE project, it is evident that our community has had many wonderful successes, as well as a fair share of challenges. Our successes included a tremendous amount of culturally relevant outreach and education and the development of a strong core of community leadership amongst limited English speaking populations. Our greatest challenges were maintaining the momentum of the work in the face of organizational restructuring (in year 2) and growing anti-immigrant sentiments nationwide that inhibited civic participation on the part of our immigrant youth and elders. Perhaps our greatest area for improvement is the partnership development piece. Since 2005, IDHA has successfully garnered many new partnerships, but needs to strengthen our project advisory committee so as to be truly representative of the multiple community stakeholders that are essential for driving the project forward. This became most clear during our recent CARE National Training in Atlanta, GA. In listening to the successes and challenges of other CARE grantees, it became evident where the ID community’s strengths lay, and where we could have done many things differently.
