What Le is especially excited about is that the nonprofit FareStart will be giving grocery vouchers to the first 100 participants, and the City of Seattle’s Office of Emergency Management will be handing out emergency backpacks.
Many of those who come through our court system face significant challenges, and this event demonstrates SMC’s commitment to not only upholding justice but also fostering trust and providing relief, Moreland says. It’s an opportunity to demonstrate that the court is not just a place of enforcement, but a supportive partner in navigating life’s difficulties. By being present in the community, we can listen to our court users, build relationships with the community and other service providers, and work together to create solutions that can make a positive impact on someone’s life, she adds.
No appointment is needed to attend this event—it is open to all in need of Seattle or King County services. Registration is not required, but you may do so by clicking here. Registration will help us determine what language interpreters to have handy or other accessibility needs. Depending on what we hear back, there may be Interpreters available in Amharic, Mandarin, Somali, Spanish, and Vietnamese.
