In support of Governor Jay Inslee’s “Stay Home, Stay Healthy” order, the Early Childhood Education and Assistance Program (ECEAP) at the Washington State Department of Children, Youth, and Families (DCYF) continues to provide vital services and supports to families with young children across Washington.
During this COVID-19 pandemic, we have all been asked to follow Washington State’s Stay Home, Stay Healthy order, which has led to the closures of schools, dental offices, courtrooms and has even changed the way DCYF interacts with families.
The young women at Ridgeview Community Facility in Yakima have generously sewn nearly 200 masks for their neighbors in need. The masks are in particularly high demand at a local nursing home heavily impacted by the COVID-19 virus.
“We just took over and dropped off masks for them outside. They called and asked us to make them more,” said Ridgeview Administrator LeeAnn Delk.
