Public Safety and Human Services Committee

Tuesday, July 25, 2023 · 9:30 AM AM · Council Chamber, City Hall 600 4th Avenue Seattle, WA 98104

TL;DR

The Public Safety and Human Services Committee held an informational meeting on July 25, 2023, where they reviewed four reports related to public safety and social services, including updates on abortion access funding, retail crime prevention, a diversion program pilot for adults 25 and older, and recommendations for domestic violence response. No votes were taken as all items were informational only—the committee heard presentations but did not take formal action on any proposals.
