Show your support for SB 5686 and protect foreclosure prevention services!

Since its inception, Washington’s foreclosure prevention programs—including the Homeownership Hotline, housing counseling, legal aid, and mediation—have helped over 78,000 homeowners stay in their homes. However, without action from the legislature, these essential services will be drastically reduced when federal funding expires June 30. Without help, struggling homeowners may face displacement, financial ruin, or homelessness.

It is essential that we protect these critical services. Use your voice and ask our state representatives to support Senate Bill 5686, which will sustain Washington’s foreclosure prevention safety net and ensure struggling homeowners can access critical support when they need it most.

Just a few pieces of information are needed to connect you with your representatives.

Message:

Dear Representative, I urge you to support Senate Bill 5686, which will sustain Washington’s foreclosure prevention safety net and ensure struggling homeowners can access critical support when they need it most. Since its inception, Washington’s foreclosure prevention programs—including the Homeownership Hotline, housing counseling, legal aid, and mediation—have helped over 78,000 homeowners stay in their homes. However, without action from the legislature, these essential services will be drastically reduced when federal funding expires June 30, 2025. SB 5686 will: - Solve the federal funding cliff by creating an ongoing funding source for foreclosure prevention services. - Sustain vital resources like the Homeownership Hotline, housing counseling, legal aid, and mediation. - Expand marketing and outreach to BIPOC homeowners so they can access these critical services. - Extend mediation rights to homeowners facing foreclosure due to HOA fees or assessments. Foreclosure prevention is homelessness prevention. The average mortgage payment of homeowners seeking help is $1,100, significantly lower than Washington’s average rent of $1,786. Without help, struggling homeowners may face displacement, financial ruin, or homelessness. I respectfully ask you to pass SB 5686 to keep families in their homes and protect Washington’s housing stability. Thank you for your time and leadership.
