are you curious about the results of the a supportive community for all community needs assessment?
Click on the SNO-VALLEY DATA tab in the menu bar to view the completed Community Needs Assessment as well as other Snoqualmie Valley related data resources.
What
A Supportive Community For All will strengthen community connections to make human services more accessible in the Snoqualmie Valley.
why
The coordination of human services is inhibited by the Valley's rural geography, which renders travel to services difficult (round trip from Duvall to North Bend is 46 miles) and by a lack of capacity (Valley cities are challenged with human services funding in 2018 for its population of approximately 56,900). As a result, the Valley's most vulnerable remain at the margins of the community, unable to access the health, housing, and economic opportunities that currently exist.
