Office Closure
Closed in Observance of Indigenous Peoples’ Day
Our office is closed today in observance of Indigenous Peoples’ Day — a time to honor and recognize the original stewards of this land. We acknowledge the histories, cultures, and ongoing contributions of the Cowlitz, Chinook, Klickitat, and other Indigenous peoples of Clark, Skamania, and Klickitat counties.
We also reflect on how Indigenous communities, like people with disabilies, have historically faced underserving, marginalization, and barriers to inclusion. Today, we recommit to learning, serving, and being allies, working to support equity, access, and belonging for all communities.
