Spokane Housing Authority is a government agency established in 1972 by the City of Spokane to oversee affordable housing across Spokane and neighboring counties. It serves Spokane, Ferry, Lincoln, Pend Orielle, Stevens, and Whitman counties, delivering housing assistance to about 6,000 low-income families each year through a mix of tenant-based rental support, SHA-owned apartment communities, and scattered-site housing. Its portfolio includes a range of managed properties in Spokane and Spokane Valley, such as Agnes Kehoe Place, Cedar West, Cornerstone Courtyard, Heritage Heights, Hifumi En, Parsons, Pearl on Adams, Westfall Village, and Valley 206, among others. Based in Spokane, Washington, SHA operates within the public sector to provide affordable housing and related services to residents in need. Recent activity shows SHA pursuing collaborations to expand housing access and supportive services. It has formed a public-private partnership with Inland Construction Group to develop housing intended for working families, and it has partnered with Rural Resources and Catholic Charities to administer project-based vouchers for local families. SHA also collaborates with regional libraries, joining with the Spokane County Library District, Spokane Public Libraries, and Liberty Lake Municipal Library to streamline the housing-application process. These efforts illustrate SHA's role as a regional administrator of affordable housing and a facilitator of related community services.
