2024-2030 Human Services Strategic Plan
The 2024-2030 Human Services Strategic Plan outlines four objectives with corresponding activities that will direct the work of Human Services staff and the Human Services Commission, driving changes that will increase equity, access, and community understanding of human service needs.
2023-2024 Human Services Needs Update
Since 1989 the City of Bellevue has published the Human Services Needs Update at the beginning of each two-year funding cycle. This report has offered a summary of human services trends, needs, disparities, and gaps in Bellevue, East King County, King County and Washington.
The Needs Update helps the Human Services Commission develop focus areas for funding recommendations to the City Council, guides the city’s Human Services division and provides information for other city departments, faith communities, concerned community groups and nonprofit health and human services providers in King County.
The 2023-2024 Human Services Needs Update provides a snapshot of what residents need, and also, how the City of Bellevue and other groups in the community are coming together to respond using a "collective impact" approach. Collective impact is defined as the commitment of key players from different sectors in the community to a common agenda for effective problem solving.
