Public Health Centers for Excellence at the Health Department and The City of Tacoma are working together to provide community-driven, participatory planning and budgeting opportunities in East Tacoma (98404) and South Tacoma (98409).  Participatory Budgeting and Planning is a democratic process that allows community members to directly decide how to spend part of a public budget. The money to fund this project comes from Tacoma Creates, a voter-approved initiative designed to expand equitable access to Tacoma’s arts, culture, heritage, and science programs.

In community,
