    Hi everyone, 
    Please keep your eyes and ears peeled for Marita (answers to Mo), she is a young looking 38 year old with severe dementia missing from her care home near Frisko Freeze for three days now. She is very trusting and friendly, walks slowly with an altered gait, and may be seeking services or in a shelter or encampment with new friends. There have been possible sightings along K St, SeaTac, on an orange motorcycle with a man, and today near 72nd/McKinley. Any news please contact 911 or the numbers on the flyers (I am happy to relay messages to them as well but am not always quickly in reach of emails). Please share flyers/photos on social, print and post as you can and reach out to your networks. Let's find this lady! 
    Thanks

Looking for Free Glasses for Family on Medicaid by Austin Colburn (21 Jul 2021 16:12 UTC)
Reply to list

    Hi folks,

     

    I am working with a family in which the parent needs glasses. She has a valid prescription, but Medicaid supposedly won’t cover lenses or frames for adults over the age of 20. Does anyone know of any programs or providers I could refer her to get the cost covered?

     

    Best,

    Austin

Reimbursement for Water and Garbage Bags Purchased During the Heat Emergency for Use in City of Tacoma by Maureen Howard (21 Jul 2021 16:36 UTC)
Reply to list

    Colleagues,
    The City of Tacoma will reimburse for water and garbage bags purchased during the heat emergency but only for use within the City of Tacoma.   Associated Ministries will handle the actual reimbursement process but requests will go through me.  If you want to be reimbursed, please email me for the request form.  You will need your receipts.  Individuals are eligible for reimbursement.
    Let's get this done as quickly as possible.
    Thanks,
    Maureen
