King County is a hub of innovation and economic opportunity, yet many of our neighbors face significant challenges in achieving financial stability. In fact, 27% of Washington's struggling households are located here. With rising costs of living and systemic barriers to employment, traditional solutions alone aren’t enough. That’s why the Workforce Development Council of Seattle-King County (WDC) proudly supports the Economic Security for All (EcSA) program—a transformative initiative helping individuals move from poverty to self-sufficiency.
