2021 Legislative Agenda

State leaders face a tough challenge to develop a 2021-2023 budget that responds to the financial and societal impacts of COVID-19. DRCs are integral to this response. 

 

In 2021, Resolution Washington seeks general operating support, expansion of the Eviction Resolution Program and promotion of the role of DRCs to assist agencies with state priorities around housing, families, schools and justice.

Why DRC mediation?

​

DRCs reduce the burdens of the courts, saving taxpayers money, and increasing access to justice for traditionally underserved populations. In 2019 DRCs mediated 5,070 cases, successfully settling 64% of them. 90% of clients reported mediation improved their situation.

​

Annually DRCs appropriate over $2 million worth of volunteer hours, directly serve over 55,000 people, indirectly serve 200,000 people whose lives are positively affected by mediation and other services and reach out to over 7 million Washington residents.
