DCYF’s Region 6 Centralia Office will be closed on Monday, June 16 through Friday, June 20, 2025, due to a facilities issue. Please note that staff are available remotely via phone and email.

Across Washington state there are parents taking child development classes, going through substance use disorder treatment, and finding jobs, housing, and transportation to strengthen their skills and create an environment where they and their children can flourish. 

The Washington State Department of Children, Youth, and Families (DCYF) celebrated their third year of the Engaging Fathers Award this month by recognizing Charles Diggle, a father of three from Grays Harbor County.  

Starting this month, a clear bag policy will be implemented at Echo Glen and Green Hill School as part of ongoing efforts to improve safety and security at juvenile rehabilitation facilities. 

The switch to clear bags will require staff, visitors, volunteers, and anyone entering secure facilities to use clear bags.
