Summary
Thurston County is unleashing $15.3 million to combat homelessness, fast-tracking aid to 17 nonprofits—including Catholic Community Services ($3.7M) and Interfaith Works ($2M)—to launch July 1, avoiding a summer delay that could’ve left vulnerable residents without support. Despite hiccups in transparency and communication that sparked concern, county commissioners unanimously approved 49 contracts, prioritizing swift action while pledging to improve future decision-making and reporting.
