The pillow measures approximately 15” x 15”, and took about 25 hours to create.

The Drug Court program is an evidence-based, 100% cost beneficial, criminal justice diversion program for individuals with severe substance use disorders. We provide access to evidence-based and culturally specific treatment, housing, employment, education, peer support services and more. Individuals who meet the requirements of each drug court phase graduate from the program and have their felony charges dismissed. The King County Adult Drug Court Program is a 501c3 charitable fund under the umbrella of Therapeutic Health Services (EGP code 9237). Donated funds help to fill the gap when state and local dollars can’t be used. Examples of ways donations have helped our participants: • Cell phones to connect to telehealth services after the pandemic hit. • Move in costs, furniture, and moving expenses to achieve permanent housing. • Emergency food and clothing. • Essential medication during gaps in insurance coverage. • Clean and sober recreation opportunities. • Recovery-oriented books for drug court lending library. • Paying fees/fines to eliminate barriers to employment and housing. • Community building events for participants and alumni. • Assisting families with filling in the gaps during the holidays. To donate, go to https://www.kingcounty.gov/audience/employees/giving/donate.aspx, choose #9237 Therapeutic Health Services and specify “In Honor of King County Drug Court” for the funds to be designated for Drug Court. Please join us and learn more about your local Drug Court program. Contact Sherry McCabe at Sherry.McCabe@kingcounty.gov for event access information.

Learn About Mutual Assistance Fund for King County Colleagues Impacted by COVID-192020-11-04T15:00:002020-11-04T15:30:00Contact Ambassador for InfoMTDMTDBring your favorite beverage and join our 30 min coffee break Wednesday, November 4 from 3-3:30pm to learn about the new Mutual Assistance Fund – brought to you by Metro Ambassadors to the Employee Giving Campaign We are facing unprecedented challenges as a community, but COVID-19 has not impacted our community equally. As you may know, King County Metro has had to lay-off 200 Metro Transit Operators at a time that many industries and organizations are struggling. We know we are in this together and we know that we can still help our colleagues. That is why some Metro Transit employees initiated The King County Employee Giving Campaign Mutual Assistance Fund, a 501c3 charitable fund under the umbrella of the Renton Regional Community Foundation. The Fund intends to provide direct assistance to former and current King County employees impacted by the COVID-19 emergency. Come hear from the founders, the Renton Foundation, and some of our supporters. We are excited to provide an opportunity, for those who can, to support each other as we continue to provide services to King County residents. We hope you will join us in donating to meet our $90,000 goal by November 20, 2020. To donate: King County employees can donate to the Fund by choosing “Renton Regional Community Foundation” (ID# 0817) and writing “KC Mutual Assistance Fund” in the donation or in honor of section. County employees may also donate Vacation Leave to the Fund. For questions and to learn more contact metrodriverfund@gmail.com or visit https://kcmaf.wordpress.com/.
