Acknowledgments

The Financial Empowerment Network (FEN), formerly known as The Seattle-King County Asset Building
Collaborative (SKCABC), Foreclosure Prevention Team expresses deep gratitude to the Arizona Foreclosure
Prevention Task Force and the Pima County Foreclosure Prevention Coalition for allowing us to adapt the
Arizona Foreclosure Prevention Workbook for use in Washington State. This information will allow
Washington residents experiencing mortgage difficulties to become better prepared when working with
their lenders, servicers, and HUD-approved non-profit housing counseling agencies.

The Foreclosure Prevention Team is comprised of numerous partner agencies from the Network which
have worked diligently to make this Resource Guide an effective tool for homeowners facing foreclosure in
Washington State. Thank you to all members who have drafted, re-written, edited, and reviewed the many
sections, but particularly to the Washington State Bar Association, Andrea Seymoure, and Seattle University
Law student David Coombs, for taking the lead in the very complicated task of collecting, coordinating,
preparing, and then updating this work for publication. The Network Foreclosure Prevention Team also
would like to thank Apprisen Financial Advocates, Washington Attorney General’s office, ClearPoint Credit
Counseling Solutions, Seattle University School of Law, the Washington State Department of Commerce,
Columbia Legal Services, Urban League of Seattle, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, Northwest
Justice Project, Northwest Consumer Law Center, Parkview Services, the City of Seattle, the Urban League
of Metropolitan Seattle, the Washington Department of Financial Institutions, and the Washington
Homeownership Resource Center, for their support and participation in the project.
