Council approves interlocal agreement for Family Justice Center

At its April 26 meeting, the City Council authorized the City to enter an interlocal agreement with Pierce County to create and operate the Tacoma-Pierce County Family Justice Center. The center will enhance the community’s response to domestic violence by centralizing services for victims and their families. The center partnership will include law enforcement, prosecutors, non-profit victim agencies, legal advocates, faith-based programs, counseling providers and translation services in a location near the County-City Building.
