Secretary Ross Hunter discusses DCYF’s response to COVID-19 in this short video.
So much has changed in the last month. With the growing COVID-19 crisis, we are truly living in unprecedented times. The Department of Children, Youth, and Families has been working tirelessly to navigate the effects of this pandemic and innovating new ways to safely support the young people in our care as well as agency partners.
In this recent video, DCYF Secretary Ross Hunter extends his gratitude for your continued dedication to the children and families in our state as we live through the COVID-19 pandemic. He also addresses Governor Inslee's recent "Stay Home, Stay Healthy" order and what it means for essential workers like you.
