Community Services
We envision the Lopez Island community as a family
in which all members can lead positive, meaningful lives, knowing that their basic needs are met.
How can we support you?
We are committed to islanders’ lifelong growth and self-improvement in an environment of respect, kindness, and compassion. We offer a range of evidence-based programs within the following areas:
Advocacy
Driven by community, our advocacy programs convene diverse groups of stakeholders in order to build consensus around community needs, hold community conversations and trainings, and cultivate grassroots leadership.
Food Programs
We believe that nutritious food is the cornerstone of health and well-being. Click on the link below to see how we are working to create a food safety-net for Lopez Island community.
Wellness
We look at health from a holistic perspective and seek to provide an array of traditional supports as well as social emotional opportunities for mental and emotional health.
Household
Support
We help members of our community gain access to the basic necessities: nutritious food, secure housing, reliable transportation, and assistance with basic utility expenses so that everyone has a foundation on which to build and thrive.
