Reminder: Community Zoom meeting is this Thursday

I hope you are able to join me this Thursday for the webinar I’m hosting to hear from Lt. Brown of the sheriff’s Mountain Detachment, and two Eatonville residents – Terry and Mike – who successfully coordinated watch groups for their neighborhoods.

The virtual meeting starts at 7 p.m. and will last anywhere from 30 minutes to an hour. There will not be an opportunity to ask questions during the meeting, but I do welcome your feedback. If you are unable to attend, the meeting will be recorded and available on my website.

2023 Youth Violence Prevention funds available

For any District 3 (or wider Pierce County-based) organizations that work with youth in the unincorporated parts of the county, our Human Services Department recently issued a Request for Proposals (RFP) for consideration of competitive funding through our Youth Violence Prevention fund. The funding is for 2023.

The Allocation Advisory Committee for Prevention Programs will make funding recommendations later this year after it reviews the RFPs. The recommendation will go before the Council’s Human Services Committee for review and consideration.

Find the RFP request here.

Grateful to serve!
