Abstract

Relationships between exit types and homelessness after exiting from federal housing assistance in King County, Washington have yet to be explored. Through a retrospective cohort study including people who exited from Seattle Housing Authority (2012–2018) or King County Housing Authority (2016–2018), differences in time-to-homelessness between groups with different exit types were examined. Among 16,301 people who exited housing assistance, 2,703 (16%) experienced homelessness within one year post-exit. Analysis of a Cox model shows within one year post-exit, positive exits are associated with lower probabilities of experiencing homelessness and negative exits are associated with higher probabilities of experiencing homelessness. Moreover, a sensitivity analysis indicated evictions have the largest negative impact on experiencing homelessness.
