Clinical Manager

About Vine Maple Place (VMP)
VMP, established in 2000 as a 501c3 nonprofit working with single parents and their children to break
the generational cycle of homelessness. Serving families who are homeless or facing eviction, our
commitment is to end homelessness in South King County. Over the past 12 years, our signature
Stable Families program has grown, serving from 68 parents and children to nearly 4,500 individuals
annually. Our programs focus on preventing homelessness or assisting families off the streets to
become safe, stable, and equipped with new skills to permanently leave homelessness. Families
achieve great success, becoming safe, stable, and self-sufficient; 95% are stably housed upon exiting
the program, with 91% maintaining their housing a year later. Our evidence-based, client-centered
services are delivered at two Family Hope Centers. As a community and faith-based organization, we
rely on the thousands of volunteer hours and donations that make our work possible. Due to the
homelessness crisis in King County, VMP is expanding to serve more families in need.
