Recovery Navigators Program
FHCO. CAFÉ's Recovery Navigators program supports individuals aged 13 and older who are experiencing substance use or behavioral health challenges through an individualized, harm reduction approach. Each plan of care is tailored to the person's culture, needs, and goals, promoting engagement and long-term stability. Our team collaborates with participants and their care networks to connect them with treatment, housing, and supportive services. Participation does not require sobriety, ensuring that services remain accessible at any stage of recovery. In 2024, the program served 289 new clients referred by law enforcement, community partners, family members, and self-referrals. Recovery Navigators completed 62 transports to detox and treatment facilities across Washington State and recorded 1,508 peer interactions focused on ongoing support and connection to resources. To meet immediate needs, the program distributed 2,600 emergency food bags and 200 boxes of Narcan throughout the community.GeographiesNot indicatedDatesJan 1, 2024 – Dec 31, 2024Source990No causes providedNo populations provided–$477.5KYouth Empowerment and Community Outreach

Alianza Ambiental - Environmental Justice in 2024, CAFÉ's Alianza Ambiental program successfully completed 8 cohorts, consisting of youth and adult community members. These 7-week cohorts focused on addressing and educating participants about environmental justice issues, with a strong emphasis on wildfire preparedness. Throughout the program, participants were provided with valuable information and resources, facilitated by professionals and partners such as the local Firefighter Department, the Department of Natural Resources (DNR), and other experts. Resources ranged from family communication plans, emergency alerts, notification systems, tips on how to protect community member homes and landscape and more. In 2024, the Alianza Ambiental program developed additional curriculum to include a focus on air quality. Alongside content experts from the University of Washington's Climate Impacts Group, a air quality and extreme heat component was grown with an environmental justice lens. The program was ran as a pilot project for a youth cohort where students measured both temperature and the air quality score. This successful program is still evolving and continues to be used. Alianza Ambiental continues to equip the community with the knowledge and tools necessary to prepare for and respond to environmental challenges, particularly in wildfire-prone areas, creating a resilient community. Over the course of the year, Alianza Ambiental participants have assisted in distributing over 85 box fans air filter kits, organizing 10 community clean-up days, and helping community members complete over 150 home assessments.GeographiesNot indicatedDatesJan 1, 2024 – Dec 31, 2024Source990No causes providedNo populations provided–$336.6K
