barriers to entry to the cannabis industry for individuals and communities most adversely impacted by the enforcement of cannabis-related laws. As a result, the Social Equity in Cannabis
Task Force was formed, allowing approximately 41 additional cannabis retail licenses to be issued for social equity purposes. Additionally, the Washington Department of Commerce partnered
with the Liquor and Cannabis Board (LCB) and Make Green Go! <https://lnks.gd/l/eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJlbWFpbCI6ImhlaXNlbmhvdXJAY28uamVmZmVyc29uLndhLnVzIiwiYnVsbGV0aW5fbGlua19pZCI6IjEwMiIsInN1YnNjcm

the complexities of licensing a retail cannabis business. The easy-to-follow online modules are self-paced and include 17 free videos to help advance an entrepreneur’s understanding
of business planning, market research, strategies, accounting, business finance and more. The online program also helps eligible applicants prepare for the LCB Social Equity license
application process.
Mentors wanted
Commerce is seeking proposals to create a roster of mentors and a facilitator to launch the mentorship element the program. Mentors will initially provide support services to any early-stage
entrepreneurs interested in starting cannabis business enterprises, particularly those who have been historically impacted by high poverty and enforcement of cannabis prohibitions.
Later, assistance will target specialized guidance and support to those seeking Social Equity licenses, providing tools and expertise where necessary.
“The Technical Assistance Mentorship Program will help bolster applicants' preparations for the Liquor and Cannabis Board's social equity licensing process and help ensure they are positioned
for success,” said Alison Beason, Commerce’s Social Equity Task Force Representative. “The program will provide applicants with industry-specific business education, direct mentorship,
and assistance developing business and finance plans while offering valuable insight and guidance navigating the myriad of complexities in establishing a retail cannabis business.”
Mentors may be awarded up to $40,000 depending on their proposed plan and budget, with a six-month contract from January 2023 through June 2023. The selected facilitator may be awarded

New office, committee will respond to need for permanent supportive housing
Permanent supportive housing (PSH) is one of the fastest-growing initiatives in the Department of Commerce. The Legislature and governor recognize PSH as an evidence-based practice to
end the cycle of chronic homelessness. As a result, in the 2022 legislative session, the Office of Apple Health and Homes (ESHB 1866 <https://lnks.gd/l/eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJlbWFpbCI6ImhlaXNlbmhvd

We are standing up the office and committee in a newly created unit in our Housing Division. The Apple Health and Homes and Permanent Supportive Housing unit (or AHAH/PSH) will provide
technical assistance and help create and maintain affordable housing for people living with behavioral health conditions, other disabling conditions and with extremely low incomes.
________________________________
Seven guiding principles
Our unique AHAH/PSH unit is dedicated to meeting the complex needs of individuals by using seven principles from the evidence-based practice model:
1. Choice of housing
2. Separation of housing and services
3. Decent, safe and affordable
4. Integrated into the community near shopping, schools, churches, and transportation
5. Rights of tenancy under current state and local laws
6. Access to housing
7. Flexible, voluntary services

Partnering for success
The AHAH/PSH unit brings the three legs of the PSH "housing stool" together (bricks/mortar, housing vouchers/subsidies and supportive housing services). The unit will work in close partnership
with the Health Care Authority (HCA) and Department of Social and Health Services (DSHS) to meet the needs of eligible participants.
In addition, AHAH/PSH will serve a portion of individuals enrolled in HCA’s Foundational Community Supports (FCS) program, who have complex health needs and risk factors. FCS is a targeted
Medicaid benefit that provides community support services to help individuals obtain and maintain housing and employment. Learn more about the FCS on its website <https://lnks.gd/l/eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1N

The AHAH/PSH team has many ways to operationalize the PSH housing stool’s three legs. First, we will work closely with HCA to identify a subset of people eligible for and enrolled in
the FCS program and who have immediate housing needs. The AHAH/PSH unit issued a request for proposals (RFP) for a pilot program to manage rent assistance subsidies and vouchers totaling
$6 million for individuals enrolled in FCS. These funds will be used to provide rent assistance at a location identified through the person’s housing assessment. While this RFP is for
a pilot to help launch this program, we anticipate the same level of funding will be available in subsequent years, pending legislative appropriation. You can review the Request for
Proposals (RFP) <https://lnks.gd/l/eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJlbWFpbCI6ImhlaXNlbmhvdXJAY28uamVmZmVyc29uLndhLnVzIiwiYnVsbGV0aW5fbGlua19pZCI6IjEwNSIsInN1YnNjcmliZXJfaWQiOiIxODA2Njg2ODUxIiwibGlua19pZCI6Ij

Technical assistance and grants
In addition, the AHAH/PSH team will generate technical assistance and capacity grants to assist entities, developers, housing providers, and service organizations in connecting services
and capital and leveraging housing assistance. Our staff will work with Enterprise Community Partners, a national technical assistance organization, to meet the training and technical
assistance goals, particularly in assisting organizations that are considered By and For and serve people from marginalized communities.
Stakeholder meeting planned for issuing capital funds
The AHAH legislation (HB 1866) created a new Apple Health and Homes account within the Washington State Treasury, as well as a Rapid Capital Housing Program. The AHAH/PSH unit will work
closely with Commerce’s Multifamily Housing Unit to issue $60 million in capital funds.
Acquiring and constructing more affordable PSH to meet the needs of vulnerable complex individuals is a high priority for Commerce and its Housing Division. The legislation for the AHAH
capital funds requires that we consider the geography of where projects are located, whether they are leveraged with other funds, and expeditiously funding projects (whether they are
new construction or acquisition), while ensuring that marginalized communities and the most vulnerable are served. The listening session will help guide us with these considerations
as we develop the guidelines.

The Department of Commerce’s Affordable Housing Advisory Board (AHAB) <https://lnks.gd/l/eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJlbWFpbCI6ImhlaXNlbmhvdXJAY28uamVmZmVyc29uLndhLnVzIiwiYnVsbGV0aW5fbGlua19pZCI6IjEwNSIsI

continue its important work.
AHAB advises Commerce on housing and housing-related issues. AHAB has 24 members <https://lnks.gd/l/eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJlbWFpbCI6ImhlaXNlbmhvdXJAY28uamVmZmVyc29uLndhLnVzIiwiYnVsbGV0aW5fbGlua19pZC

VM6UV09nwrZyLg> representing a variety of housing interests around the state.
There is a massive need to provide more affordable housing options across the state, and advisors help us achieve that goal.
The two open positions include:
Special Needs Representative
AHAB must have one representative of special needs populations. Special needs populations can consist of, but are not limited to, persons with physical and cognitive disabilities, homeless
persons, veterans and survivors of domestic violence.
Unit Owners’ Association Representative
Earlier this year, AHAB’s membership requirements were amended to include one representative from a common interest unit owners’ association. Nominees must be a member of a unit owners’
association, which is organized under the Uniform Common Interest Ownership Act, consists exclusively of all unit owners, and has a board or is organized as a for-profit or not-for-profit
corporation or limited liability company.
Governor Jay Inslee appoints members to the Affordable Housing Advisory Board. If you are interested in applying, please review the board duties <https://lnks.gd/l/eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJlbWFpbCI6Im

Initiative.

Signing Good Neighbor Agreement/Rules
Prior to receiving a badge, individuals living onsite must agree to and sign the Good Neighbor Agreement/Rules. The Good Neighbor Agreement/Rules <https://lnks.gd/l/eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJlbWFpbCI6I

adhere to rules such as:
1. Follow all laws when you are at or around the site; you understand that laws will be enforced onsite
2. No possession, use or consumption of drugs or alcohol on the site;
3. Agree to working with staff to come up with a housing/stability plan;
By signing the agreement, residents acknowledge that they will be held accountable to these rules for the good of the community both within and outside of Camp Hope. If the rules are
not followed, it may lead to individuals being asked to leave the site.
As of end of day Tuesday, 148 people living at Camp Hope had signed the agreement and received an ID badge. This work continues throughout the week.
Completion of Needs Assessment
Individuals living onsite will also complete a Needs Assessment <https://lnks.gd/l/eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJlbWFpbCI6ImhlaXNlbmhvdXJAY28uamVmZmVyc29uLndhLnVzIiwiYnVsbGV0aW5fbGlua19pZCI6IjEwNCIsInN1YnN

ytPE4qCaC-MuaqDxYdK0_eRCtpIE31scSxLbWD1pqs> with the help of service providers as part of the process to receive a Camp Hope ID badge. The Needs Assessment collects necessary data on
the demographics of the individuals living within Camp Hope and articulates what services each individual needs. Those services are broad and include things like bus passes, health
insurance, mental health counseling, substance use treatment, first aid and other items and more detail about their specific individual history and story. The Needs Assessment is critical
to developing the individual plans necessary to get residents on a path to success to help prevent a return to living homeless.
Issuance of Camp Hope specific identification
Once these steps have been taken, providers will create and distribute Camp Hope identification badges with the purpose of having a clear census of how many people are living at the
encampment. This is an important measure so that service providers know exactly how many individuals are living homeless within the site requiring safe housing options and services.
The unofficial ID badges also are a tool to aid in security measures to determine who should/shouldn’t be at the encampment, identify who wants to take a positive next step toward stabilization,
help create a sense of order and engagement and also will effectively close the site to “new” residents.
State-issued identification
On Wednesday, Oct. 19, state Departments of Licensing and Health employees will be at Camp Hope again to assist those living onsite with acquiring replacement or renewal state-issued
identification cards (DOL) and birth certificates (DOH). Many living within Camp Hope previously had an ID or driver’s license, most in Washington, but no longer have the card in their
possession. Lack of official ID represents a major hurdle for those living homeless who want to take a positive step toward stabilization and long-term housing because IDs are critical
to employment, medical care and housing. DOL employees will be onsite for the next two Wednesdays to continue this process with the overall goal of connecting those at the encampment
to services and housing.
RV removal
Three vacant RVs that were parked on property adjacent to Camp Hope have been removed. As people living in RVs at the encampment transition into shelters or housing, those vacated RVs
will be removed from the property.

Early work and partnerships moving this work forward
It’s important to highlight the shared cooperation between those living homeless within Camp Hope, our service providers and WSDOT, Commerce and WSP as it represents mutual collaboration
to improve conditions for those within and outside of Camp Hope. We continue to work with the city and local partners to identify viable housing solutions for all of those living homeless
within Camp Hope.
This work doesn’t happen overnight, and it is because of discussions and funding that began this spring that we’re at these new milestones. We look forward to more productive meetings
with local leaders to continue these efforts.

Climate Resilience pilot program kicks off
The Evergreen State’s diverse landscape of glacial peaks, rolling plains, verdant forests, and rocky shores is already witnessing the effects of a warming world in the form of stronger
storms, rising seas, and blazing wildfires. Starting this fall, the geographically diverse cities of Port Angeles, Pullman, and Woodland will test draft planning guidance to build communitywide
resilience to climate change.
Climate resilience is the capacity of a jurisdiction, business, or natural environment to prevent, withstand, respond to, and recover from a disruption. Washington’s cities and counties
may build climate resilience by implementing a mix of preparedness, response, and recovery policies, including mitigating natural hazards, adapting to unavoidable impacts, and restoring
degraded natural areas that provide key ecosystem services.
The aim of the pilot program is to create a flexible framework for cities and counties big and small to integrate climate goals and policies into their comprehensive plan. The draft
resilience planning guidance — a sub-element of a broader Model Climate Element <https://lnks.gd/l/eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJlbWFpbCI6ImhlaXNlbmhvdXJAY28uamVmZmVyc29uLndhLnVzIiwiYnVsbGV0aW5fbGlua19pZC

of Commerce is leading as part of a collaborative state project — focuses on helping local jurisdictions prepare for, respond to, and recover from climate-exacerbated hazards and impacts.
A companion mitigation sub-element shows jurisdictions how to measure and manage local emissions of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases from transportation, buildings, and other
sectors.
Through the end of March 2023, a Cascadia-BERK consultant team will help Port Angeles, Pullman, and Woodland use the draft resilience planning guidance to explore local climate hazards
and impacts, assess assets’ vulnerability and risk, identify policy gaps and barriers, and select climate resilience measures for their comprehensive plan. Commerce will use the three
cities’ input to improve the draft resilience planning guidance and complete work on the broader Model Climate Element by July 2023.
It is currently optional for Washington’s cities and counties to integrate a climate element into a comprehensive plan — either as a single chapter or across multiple chapters (for example,
housing, transportation, and land use.). This year, Commerce provided about $1.6 million in grants to 27 cities and counties to help with this work — which could one day be required
by State lawmakers. Commerce expects to provide about $4 million in grants over the next biennium, enabling additional jurisdictions to develop climate elements as part of their comprehensive
plan periodic update cycle.

Please welcome Americorp fellow, Alicia McAfee (she/her). Alicia joins us as a part of Civic Spark, a partner program with AmeriCorps that creates fellowship opportunities in Washington
to address climate resiliency issues. Civic Spark fellows assist with local projects focused on sustainable transportation, energy efficiency, climate action planning, water conservation,
drought response, affordable housing, rural-broadband, equity, and environmental justice. Commerce has three such fellows working on climate resilience and we are pleased to have Alicia
on our team.
Alicia is a recent graduate of Central Washington University with a degree in environmental science with a geology specialization and a minor in public health. She also has a certificate
in sustainability and during her time at CWU, created a Sustainability Literacy and Behaviors survey for the university. Alicia is very passionate about climate change and working toward
finding solutions. She is excited to learn and help out as much as possible during her time at Commerce and looks forward to working with everyone.

About the Housing Trust Fund
Housing Trust Fund dollars support a wide range of capital projects that house a diverse array of low-income populations. Properties financed by the program can house people with incomes
less than 80% of Area Median Income(AMI), but the majority of these properties serve households with special needs or incomes below 30% of AMI, including:
* people and families experiencing homelessness,
* people in need of supportive housing,
* seniors,
* veterans,
* farmworkers, and
* people with developmental or other disabilities.
Special-needs projects coordinate with state and local service providers to ensure clients receive appropriate housing and services.
