Vision
Create a safe environment for families and children accessing asylum
seeker services at RPUMC.
Decommission White Tent contracted by the City at RPUMC.
Commitment and compliance to sustainable services models at RPUMC.
Asylum seekers services are provided and tailored to their unique needs.
City is part of the greater hub/spoke statewide system, but Tukwila is not
owning the statewide response.
Focus on current asylum seekers versus new arrivals.
Emphasis is on the people, not the organizations.
