The posting

At YWCA Seattle | King | Snohomish, maintenance is about more than maintaining buildings. The work you do helps create safe, stable places where people can rebuild their lives.

Fixing a leaking sink, preparing an apartment for a new resident, repairing a door, or responding to a building emergency may feel like maintenance work, but for the people we serve, it can mean having a safe home, greater stability, and one less thing to worry about.
