R.I.P.
FRANK CHOPP
1953 - 2025
Remembering Frank Chopp, former Solid Ground leader and tireless champion for low-income communities
<https://wapartnership.us4.list-manage.com/track/click?u=acf3cee5bbda818ebd4ce40eb&id=4bd30fa0eb&e=b80de0d97c>
Washington state has lost a remarkable and visionary leader, a true statesman, and a great man in former Speaker of Washington state’s House of Representatives Frank Chopp, who died
on Saturday. He was 71.
Throughout his career as a legislator and pioneering nonprofit leader, Frank worked tirelessly to advance and protect social services and the safety net for those in need, leaving behind
a legacy without comparison. His many contributions and accomplishments will live on through the policy, legislation, and low-income housing he fought for.
“With Frank’s passing, Washington state has lost a tireless advocate for communities, housing, and homeless services,” says Shalimar Gonzales, Solid Ground <https://wapartnership.us4.list-manage.com/
track/click?u=acf3cee5bbda818ebd4ce40eb&id=afa95bb695&e=b80de0d97c> CEO. “He accomplished so much in his lifetime, never resting and never giving up on his vision of bringing every
person inside.”
Frank will be remembered for his long and successful career as leader of the House of Representatives and his unwavering commitment to human services and social justice, including equitable
education, health care, affordable housing, living-wage jobs, and the safety net. Continue reading…. <https://wapartnership.us4.list-manage.com/track/click?u=acf3cee5bbda818ebd4ce40eb&id=28a45dd06c

Byrd Barr Place: Introducing the New Director of Advancement!
<https://wapartnership.us4.list-manage.com/track/click?u=acf3cee5bbda818ebd4ce40eb&id=c82b259312&e=b80de0d97c>

Wendy Armour. I had the privilege of sitting down with Wendy, and after our conversation, I was not only impressed but also felt an immediate sense of sisterhood. Wendy is a Washington
State native who moved to Seattle in her teenage years. She was once a recipient of the support Byrd Barr Place (formerly known as CAMP) provided, and it was that experience that sparked
her passion for joining our team.
Can you tell me more about yourself?
I was born in Richland, Washington, and moved to Seattle with my mother and two sisters, where our church became our foundation. I attended the wonderful Franklin High School and then
went on to college in Louisiana at Grambling State University, where I majored in Business Management and minored in Marketing. After graduation, I moved to Atlanta, Georgia, and lived
there for two and a half years before returning to Seattle, where my immediate family resides. About 10 years later, I reconnected with my college sweetheart, the amazing Shawn Armour,
and we got married. We have one awesome son, Deschman, and two incredible bonus adult children, Asia & Shawn Michael.

Major housing project comes to Tacoma

An innovative and visionary affordable housing development is currently underway in Tacoma, and its groundbreaking made it official on March 19.
Gathering at Tacoma Community College, the event brought together the wealth of partners to make Aviva Crossing happen right across the street from TCC at the James Center North shopping
center.
The project began in 2017 when Tacoma Housing Authority <https://wapartnership.us4.list-manage.com/track/click?u=acf3cee5bbda818ebd4ce40eb&id=9e1a1e7730&e=b80de0d97c> purchased the
land then brought Mercy Housing Northwest <https://wapartnership.us4.list-manage.com/track/click?u=acf3cee5bbda818ebd4ce40eb&id=1c41aa3ac9&e=b80de0d97c> on as the development partner.
Aviva Crossing features 129 new, affordable, energy-efficient homes. Half of the homes will be two- and three-bedroom units and the other half will be one-bedroom units. The community
will also feature offices for on-site property management and resident services staff. Tacoma Housing Authority will provide Housing Choice Vouchers for every home ensuring families
will pay only 30 percent of their income in rent.
Additional partnerships include Tacoma Public Schools which will ensure support for children in schools and a path to housing for students struggling with homelessness. Metropolitan
Development Council <https://wapartnership.us4.list-manage.com/track/click?u=acf3cee5bbda818ebd4ce40eb&id=e060ca426b&e=b80de0d97c> will provide onsite programming.
The Aviva Crossing residential community will include communal open and green space, retail space, and easy access to public transit. A community room and south offices support the homework
club, health clinics and financial literacy programs that are part of Mercy’s in-house, family-oriented resident services.

Sen. Murray highlights stories of former federal employees
<https://wapartnership.us4.list-manage.com/track/click?u=acf3cee5bbda818ebd4ce40eb&id=f7c1750ade&e=b80de0d97c>
Last week, U.S. Senator Patty Murray held virtual press conferences with federal workers in Washington state who were terminated under President Donald Trump’s Department of Government
Efficiency. She also shared concerns about the freezing of federal funding for communities across the country.
“President Trump is coming here to the Capitol… this evening to give what he is calling the State of the Union (Joint Address to Congress). But I expect that he will give his own fantasy
version of an update on how he and Elon Musk are running the country,” Murray said Tuesday. “Because it is pretty painfully clear to me… that these two out-of-touch billionaires really
have no idea what they are doing. In short, they really have no sense at all of the actual state of our union.”
The senator’s press conference featured stories from former federal employees who lost their jobs due to mass terminations.
“In Okanogan County, funding for the Okanogan County Community Action Council <https://wapartnership.us4.list-manage.com/track/click?u=acf3cee5bbda818ebd4ce40eb&id=531db80f3c&e=b80de0d97c>
remains in limbo.
“Rural safety net programs for disaster relief, emergency assistance for basic needs, and job support are essential to the economic health of our entire community,” said Rena Shawver,
Executive Director of Okanogan County Community Action Council. “The kind of programming that will run out of these facilities provides a safety net for working families and people
in crisis. We hope to see the funding for these resiliency hubs come through soon.”
A $20 million Community Change Grant from the Environmental Protection Agency, which was awarded to Community Action in December 2024, remains frozen due to Trump’s executive orders.
The funding was intended to create a Food Hub to store food for assistance programs and a multipurpose Community Center in Omak, which would house job-training, daycare, energy assistance,
and other services to help the community become more resilient to poverty and disasters.
The facility has been in design and development for over a decade. The EPA was in the process of finalizing the contract with Community Action when the funding freeze occurred.
Shawver said the organization has not heard from the EPA since Jan. 24.”

Housing initiatives, had an incredible success! Redondo Heights affordable housing complex of 344 units of workforce housing with a satellite food bank had its grand opening. Affordable
housing is one of the top needs in our community. And, housing that is built alongside the light rail for ease of access and transportation is a perfect example of smart community planning
and development.
In order for projects like this to be successful, it takes years of planning and many public and private partnerships. MSC partnered with Shelter Resources, Inc., the Washington State
Department of Commerce, Rep. Jamilla Taylor’s office, Amazon, the City of Federal Way, and several others to make this project come to life.
In addition to adding housing units with affordability at the forefront, we’ve also included a satellite food bank that’s designed market style for shopping dignity and relevance for
those accessing food services. This space also includes a café, drop-in space for partners, and will include resource navigation services.

OIC of Washington leads Long Sleeve Shirt Drive to support farm workers
<https://wapartnership.us4.list-manage.com/track/click?u=acf3cee5bbda818ebd4ce40eb&id=05be3dba97&e=b80de0d97c>
The Association of Farm Worker Opportunity Programs, with OIC of Washington <https://wapartnership.us4.list-manage.com/track/click?u=acf3cee5bbda818ebd4ce40eb&id=bb87911171&e=b80de0d97c>
as a partner, has once again launched its annual long-sleeve shirt drive, aimed at improving the health and safety of farm workers across the nation.
The initiative, which began in 2014 as part of National Farm Worker Awareness Week, provides protective gear to workers facing extreme heat, pesticide exposure, and harsh working conditions.
“Since this initiative started, over 129,000 long sleeve shirts have been collected and distributed to farm workers,” said Leonor Barker, Associate Director of Counseling at OIC of Washington.
The campaign’s focus on lightweight, long-sleeved shirts is designed to shield workers from the sun’s harsh rays while also preventing skin irritation caused by branches and other obstacles
encountered.
““Farm workers are essential to our food supply, and this campaign not only supports them but also raises awareness of their contributions,” said Sy Ruiz, Public Relations Director at
OIC of Washington. “We challenge businesses and community members to get involved and continue supporting farm workers year-round. They need help not just during National Farm Worker
Awareness Week, but throughout the year.””

New Community Youth Center opens in White Salmon
<https://wapartnership.us4.list-manage.com/track/click?u=acf3cee5bbda818ebd4ce40eb&id=2add69143a&e=b80de0d97c>
Jennifer Pauletto, the executive director of Washington Gorge Action Program, cuts the ribbon for White Salmon’s new Community Youth Center in the Parks Building, previously located
on East Jewett since 1995.
Washington Gorge Action Program <https://wapartnership.us4.list-manage.com/track/click?u=acf3cee5bbda818ebd4ce40eb&id=b2314d534e&e=b80de0d97c> s (WAGAP), having moved from its old space
on East Jewett to the Parks Building in Rheingarten, officially unveiled its new Community Youth Center to the joy of parents, kids and project partners alike on March 13.
The City of White Salmon, White Salmon Valley School District (WSVSD), the City of Bingen and Klickitat County all helped support the move, which was years in the making. Established
in 1995, WAGAP provides after-school care for children ages 6 and up on weekdays during the academic year from 3-5 p.m., then transitions to full-day programming over the summer.
“The kids have been very excited, and I think this space will be suitable for us for a really long time,” said Jennifer Pauletto, executive director of WAGAP, prior to the ribbon-cutting
ceremony.
Beyond being a safe environment, WAGAP offers healthy snacks, structured play, computer time, art time, outdoor play and leads community cleanup projects through the youth center.
With the new facility comes more space, a shorter commute for kids, less nearby traffic and improved outdoor opportunities (imagine 30 kids being so close to the splash pad this summer).
At the ceremony, there was also consensus that the old Jewett house had served its purpose.

Rising Food Insecurity & How You Can Help
With living expenses, especially food prices, on the rise and no end in sight, Hopelink <https://wapartnership.us4.list-manage.com/track/click?u=acf3cee5bbda818ebd4ce40eb&id=0f7d94ed00&e=b80de0d97c>

a818ebd4ce40eb&id=279c875fee&e=b80de0d97c> program is currently experiencing our highest ever recorded rates of enrollment - up 15% since July 2024. This means that, so far, we’re distributing
food to an additional 1,200 people per month compared to this time last year.
At the same time our enrollment has increased, the program is facing multiple food supply challenges. This includes those same soaring food prices, a shorter (sometimes unpredictable)
growing season, and an annual shortage of over $1 million in food supply after a major supply partner shifted their regional distribution approach.
The rippling effects of these aforementioned factors are touching many lives, and our neighbors are feeling it. For people with limited income, who must make decisions on what expenses
to tackle first (rent, power, medical bills, transportation), the ability to access food in our Markets is the peace of mind they may need to keep safe and warm with a roof over their
family’s heads. The people we serve need us to be here because without access to sufficient, nutrient-dense food - our most basic need - it’s not only difficult to gain stability, but
hunger can have lasting health impacts.

Federal cuts squeeze already-struggling food banks, school lunch programs
Schools and pantries say they will have to provide less or rely on cheaper, more processed foods.
<https://wapartnership.us4.list-manage.com/track/click?u=acf3cee5bbda818ebd4ce40eb&id=3c7895beb0&e=b80de0d97c>
For the Day Eagle Hope Project, federal money has helped volunteers deliver fresh produce and meat to families in need across the remote Fort Belknap Indian Reservation in northern Montana
— while putting cash into the hands of farmers, ranchers and meat processors.
The nonprofit generally has less than $300,000 to spend per year. So the $200,000 from a U.S. Department of Agriculture local food buying program drastically raised both the quantity
and quality of the food it could distribute.
“They were a major, major contributor to our food,” said Tescha Hawley, who directs the organization, which aims to improve physical, mental and spiritual health.
The USDA recently nixed more than $1 billion <https://wapartnership.us4.list-manage.com/track/click?u=acf3cee5bbda818ebd4ce40eb&id=93bd3494fd&e=b80de0d97c> from two programs that helped
food banks and school meal programs buy local foods, including $660 million for schoolchildren. U.S.
Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins recently described the programs as “nonessential.” <https://wapartnership.us4.list-manage.com/track/click?u=acf3cee5bbda818ebd4ce40eb&id=0eae2fc560&e=b80de0d97c>
But the move has left hundreds of school systems and food banks reeling. They already face rising food prices and are struggling to help community members with growing food insecurity.

Q & A with Food Lifeline explains impacts of cuts to local foodbanks
<https://wapartnership.us4.list-manage.com/track/click?u=acf3cee5bbda818ebd4ce40eb&id=c48e492f9b&e=b80de0d97c>
Both Washington State and the Trump Administration are making cuts to food banks which will affect thousands here locally. Westside Seattle asked Mark Coleman with Food Lifeline to respond
to some questions about those impacts.
Food Lifeline is a nonprofit organization dedicated to ending hunger in Western Washington.
They work to provide nutritious food to people in need today while also addressing the root causes of hunger to create long-term solutions. Food Lifeline partners with food banks, meal
programs, and shelters to distribute food and advocate for policies that combat food insecurity. Food Lifeline is responsible for repackaging and delivering food to 275 different organizations
that distribute meals to the Western Washington population. Out of all the food distributed to these different organizations, 30% of the meals end up coming directly from Food Lifeline
alone. Food Lifeline is part of a nationwide non-profit called Feeding America <https://wapartnership.us4.list-manage.com/track/click?u=acf3cee5bbda818ebd4ce40eb&id=4f2cb03ad4&e=b80de0d97c>
and assists in collecting food that would otherwise go to waste.
You can learn more about their mission and initiatives on their official website HERE. <https://wapartnership.us4.list-manage.com/track/click?u=acf3cee5bbda818ebd4ce40eb&id=42c5915a50&e=b80de0d97c>
Q - Governor Bob Ferguson proposed a $52 million cut to food banks as part of broader efforts to address Washington State's $15 billion budget deficit. He emphasized that the state had
been spending at elevated levels due to federal pandemic funds, which are no longer available. While the state will still allocate $82 million to food assistance—significantly more
than pre-pandemic levels—Ferguson argued that it’s not feasible to fully replace the lost federal funding. He suggested that faith based efforts might help make up the shortfall. How
realistic are his suggestions? What else can be done?
A - Food banking is the last line of defense when state and federal funding fails to meet our community's food needs. Most of Food Lifeline’s donations are from the private and foundation
sectors. However, food insecurity is outpacing new donations, making it difficult for Food Lifeline to keep up with the increased demand.

Zoom out: Nearly 8 in 10 (78%) of teachers said they were concerned about food insecurity in the communities where they teach, per the survey <https://wapartnership.us4.list-manage.com/track/click?u=
acf3cee5bbda818ebd4ce40eb&id=1db42dafa2&e=b80de0d97c> .
The big picture: Proposed cuts to the federal Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program <https://wapartnership.us4.list-manage.com/track/click?u=acf3cee5bbda818ebd4ce40eb&id=66737b2795&e=b80de0d97c>
food assistance program, serving more than 41 million Americans, and federal funding cuts to free school meals could increase hunger, experts say.
* Around 40% of SNAP benefits go to children, per USDA data <https://wapartnership.us4.list-manage.com/track/click?u=acf3cee5bbda818ebd4ce40eb&id=192c38dc58&e=b80de0d97c> .
What they're saying: "SNAP is one of the most effective tools we have as a nation to address childhood hunger," Sarah Steely, director of No Kid Hungry Virginia, told Axios.
* "It provides families with that extra help to put food on the table so that kids can have access to consistent nutrition all year round, especially filling the void during school breaks."

Anthony Peterson: OIC CEO
The Yakima Valley has a bright future if the young professionals featured in this publication are any indication of what’s ahead.
Our annual 39 under 39 publication features people from a broad cross-section of the community. This year’s section puts the spotlight on teachers, a veterinarian, a hip hop artist,
a laboratory scientist, a banker and a ballroom dance school owner. Many people featured don’t just fit into one category and contribute through community service, coaching or volunteer
work.
“If not you, than who?
That’s one of the ideas Anthony Peterson, CEO of the Opportunities Industrialization Center of Washington <https://wapartnership.us4.list-manage.com/track/click?u=acf3cee5bbda818ebd4ce40eb&id=4c68518
568&e=b80de0d97c> , took to heart growing up. If you don’t step up to help, who will?
“I’ve internalized that,” he said. “I’m a product of a lot of the services we offer … This work seems natural to me. I’ve been through it.”
Peterson was named OIC’s CEO in late 2022 after almost a year in the interim role. He’s introduced a culture shift, focusing on moving people from basic services to jobs to self-sufficiency.
“It would be great to work ourselves out of a job,” he said about the organization.
Peterson has worked with community members and staff to launch additional programs that help people get employable job credentials and move forward in life.
Yakima-based OIC has been around for more than 50 years and Peterson is proud of that history and its support of the community. The organization’s staff members make it so successful,
he said.
“I have the best staff and team in the United States,” Peterson said. “They believe in this mission and they take pride in this work.””
