This year, the state legislative session will be held remotely. This means advocacy days and public hearings will be online, as will meetings with state legislators.
The Arc of King County is here to support to you. Our community advocacy coordinator can offer one-on-one support. Our King County Parent and Family Coalition will offer weekly briefings on Monday evenings, and our Community Change Champions will be organizing weekly chats for people interested in forming a peer group to learn about proposed legislation and support each other in advocacy.
Looking for individual advocacy support? Please contact Eric Warwick, our community advocacy coordinator, at
