Maintain Funding for Health and Human Services
2009 Legislative Agenda
#1. Support Revenue Solutions for Counties
Revenue solutions for counties legislation did not pass. The KCAHS (King County Alliance for Human Services) was one of the leaders of this. LPPO is a part of the King County Religious Leaders Task Force that is a part of this coalition.
#2. Support a fair and equitable Reimbursement Rate for Non-Profit Providers
Reimbursement rates for non-profits were not maintained. Non-profits like Lutheran Community Services NW will once again suffer from being under-funded by the state for the excellent services it renders to the poor and vulnerable.
