RE: Yakima Supportive Living Project for Adults
Dear Mr. Cobabe:
I am pleased to submit this request for a $25,000 deferred loan from the City of Yakima to assist
the Diocese of Yakima Housing Service (DYHS) to purchase a group home for three adults with
developmental disabilities.
The Yakima Supportive Living Project for Adults is designed to serve people with severe
disabilities who in the past may have lived out their lives in state institutions. The project will
provide affordable, community-based housing with 24-hour staffing funded through the Intensive
Tenant Support program of the DSHS Division of Developmental Disabilities.
The program model is based on maximizing individual autonomy, with an emphasis on skills.
Residents exercise personal choice in terms of the services they receive, housemate selection, and
other life decisions. Residents have the opportunity to participate in all aspects of community
life, such as employment, recreation, home maintenance, and chores. The project alio
emphasizes community-based support, with a commitment from the Holy Family Parish to
"adopt" the program as part of their community outreach work. Finally, the operating cost of the
program is significantly less than more restrictive residential alternatives, such as
institutionalization. In 1998, the cost for state institutions averaged $329 per day per resident.
We estimate that DSHS spends $190 per resident per day in the proposed model.
The residents themselves have very low incomes, including a combination of disability benefits
and income from work. Therefore, the project will be affordable at 30% of median income, with
rents of only $125 per month for each resident. This rent level, which is significantly less than
what residents are currently paying, will be just enough for us to maintain the property and to
fund reserves, as detailed in the attached operating budget.
Although many programs like this exist in other parts of the country, community-based living is
not currently available in Central Washington. We envision the Yakima Supported Living Project
becoming a model program for the region.
In addition to the requested funding from the City, we have secured a commitment of $105,000
from the State of Washington. Catholic Charities of the Diocese of Yakima is providing a
$15,000 grant to the project, and DYHS is seeking additional private grants from several banks.
The total project cost, including acquisition and accessibility upgrades, is $153,663 as detailed in
the attached development budget.
Since our meeting several weeks ago, we have found an appropriate house for this project,
located at 1423 Karr Avenue. This is a vacant three-bedroom house located next door to where
the existing program is operating in a rented house, and is close to public transportation,
employment, and services. Our purchase and sale agreement allows us until August 3 to secure
financing, with a closing on September 3, 1999.
The Diocese of Yakima Housing Services is a nonprofit organization formed in 1998 to develop
affordable housing in central Washington. Our first project is to acquire the Southridge Place
Apartments in Chelan, a troubled 31 -unit project that was funded several years ago by the State of
Washington. Beacon Development Group of Seattle is providing development services for both
projects.
I appreciate your support of this project, and encourage you to call Stephanie Matheny, the
project manager, at (206) 860-2491x208 if you have any questions.
Sincerely,

Dear Mr. Young;
The City of Yakima Office ofNeighborhood Development Services is
pleased to offer our support to the proposed Yakima Supported Living
Project for Adults. This project fits within the guidelines of our
Consolidated Plan, and is an eligible activity for the federal grant dollars we
receive.
We will be interested in helping you locate a suitable house for the project;
in fact our agency may already own a home that will be well suited for the
project in that it already has handicapped facilities in place. In any event,
we will be looking forward to assisting you with this project in the areas of
funding, design, and construction supervision.
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.

Dear Members of the City Council,
I wanted to write in support of the request of funding in the amount of $25,000 from the
Diocese of Yakima Housing Services.
The Diocese of Yakima Housing Services was formed in order to provide for a very basic
human need. That need is for a secure and safe place to live; a place that allows people to
fully participate in and contribute to the life of a community. Unfortunately, affordable
housing continues to be an issue for many people across Central Washington and even
right here in our community.
Before you today is a request that would be the final step in making a huge difference in
the lives of some very special young people in our community. It also represents an
opportunity to come together and maximize resources that our community has available
for such an effort. This type of stewardship benefits all of us.
I know that much of your service to this community involves decisions about the
allocation of funds. I want to assure you that I understand the responsibility that you
have. I thank you for you willingness to assume this responsibility and wish you well in
you efforts.
I respectfully request your favorable consideration for this effort.
May God continue to bless you abundantly.
Sincerely in Christ,

They are in the process of securing funding for a home they are planning to purchase for use by
three young men with disabilities. They are looking to bring together resources from federal,

This home will allow the young men to continue to live and work in our community. The
Division of Developmental Disabilities will provide 24-hour residential support for this project.
Yakima County is funding the employment program that provides jobs for these individuals.
This will be a cost-effective project and it is designed to be self-supporting.
For the value this opportunity provides these men, 1 encourage you to support funding of this

Dear Award Committee,
I am writing in support of the Yakima Supported Living Project for autistic adults One of
the autistic young men and his family are members of the Holy Family parish community and I
have come to know them very well over the past ten years. The need to develop alternative
ways to help those with extremely challenging behaviors to be able to live near their families
and base of support is critical This project involves much more than just providing a physical
residence and staffing for people who are unable to live completely independently. It also is an
opportunity for an entire community to develop a relationship with these individuals who might
otherwise be relegated to isolated anonymity. Through this kind of relationship the disabled
will be much more likely to lead full lives using all the gifts given them by God
I am committed to the success of this project and look forward to working with members
of our parish community toward this end. As a parish community we are committed to a deep
level of involvement by providing volunteer labor in support of the renovation of a house and
ongoing participation in day to day needs of the residents and the house as requested and as we
are able. This project has become a recognized outreach ministry of our parish and is now in-
cluded in our overall pastoral and stewardship plan. Our commitment is to the I roject and not
just the individuals involved and we plan on being involved regardless of who the residents are
for as long as our partnership is desired.
Government has been asking private entities, especially churches for help in providing
services to people who are unable to provide for themselves for some time now. We are an-
swering this call and request that you bring your influence to bear to approve the request for
funding so the Yakima Supported Living Project can become a reality as soon as possible.

Re: Seth Jacobs
Michael Murry
Dear Mr. Purcell,
I am writing to express my gratitude for the Beacon Development Group's willingness to considering
helping Seth Jacobs and Michael Murry buy their own home. The Division of Developmental Disabilities
(DDD) has been slowly, yet steadily moving towards delivering supports to individuals with
developmental disabilities in ways that give them more control over who, how and where those supports
are provided.
Our Intensive Tenant Support (ITS) program is a good example of this movement. Both Michael and
Seth are receiving 24 hour ITS services. The services are being provided by an agency paid through a
contract with DDD. The individuals and their families chose the agency. To a degree both Michael and
Seth also have a say as to what agency employees they want to support them. They also have, within the
limitations of their resources and the availability of the housing in their community. a choice as to where
they will live. However, in most cases how long they may live in a given home is often subject to the
whims of a landlord. Owning their own home would provide them even more control over their own
lives. This is something DDD wholeheartedly endorses.
In addition DDD is committed to providing Michael and Seth 24 hour ITS support as long as they need
that level of service or until an even better model for support services is developed. Given the nature of
their developmental disability, while 1 hope we are wrong, we anticipate that this is a lifetime
commitment. And while it may be argued that there is no guarantee that there will always be state funds
available, this State and DDD have a very good history of assuring people with developmental disabilities
who are receiving services do not lose those services.
Our commitment goes beyond just providing the staff support they need. Even though individuals in our
ITS programs are responsible for maintaining their own homes by paying their rent, house payments,
utilities and so forth through the use of their own fiscal resources DDD can also help cover certain
unforeseen expenses depending on the circumstances. We do this because of our belief that remaining in
ones own home is important.
I ani grateful for whatever assistance you may be able to provide in helping these two, fine young men
own their own home. If I can be of further assistance in this endeavor please let me know.

Dear Jerri:
This letter is to support this innovative answer to care and housing for young adults with
disabilities. Families with children that have challenging behaviors struggle with the
young child. The Children's Village was built to support all families with children 0-12
years. The reality is that the needs are often greater for families with older children. This
model for supporting these young adults and their families is one that I fully support. It
allows the families to be in close contact and allows the young adults to participate as
fully as they can in their community, and it is a cost effective solution.

Dear Governor Locke:
I .am writing to express my strong support for the Yakima Supported Living
Project which is a model program for adults with autism. Based on my experience
working as a professional with families of individuals with autism, I can attest to the
severe and prolonged emotional and financial burdens these families endure. I support
community based services that foster quality outcomes, such as choice, inclusion,
partnership and cost effectiveness as addressed in this proposal. This project will provide
appropriate training to the staff supervising these young men and provide a proactive
introduction to supported living as these young men reach adulthood.
1 hope that you see the value of creating a model program which is cost.effeetive
and supports people in their natural environments. In conclusion, strongly support the
Yakima Supported Living project for three people with autism.
