Homelessness in Seattle
SCOTT ANTHONY W
e took Mrs. Anthony’s Mom to dinner at a restaurant on Friday evening and just about the time we finished, a woman walked up to our table wearing a head scarf and sweater, holding a handmade sign. It took me a moment to process that she was begging. Her voice was nearly inaudible in the noisy restaurant so the sign told the story, ‘Please Help, I have three children and no money for food.’ I shook my head ‘no’ and she hesitated a moment longer, a sad vision, then moved to another table. I turned to my wife and to Mom, mixed with surprise at the boldness and some guilt for dismissing the woman, and soon a hostess arrived and escorted the woman out of the restaurant. I watched as she continued approaching the diners in the
outside seating area. Later, as we drove home and came to a stop at the light on the freeway on ramp and noticed this scene: A young guy with his sign, dirty and unkempt but seemingly able-bodied. I don’t usually give money to panhandlers, but Mrs. A does on occasion when conditions warrant, like when I’m driving and it’s safe to roll the window down and and she can thrust a few dollars out. The individuals who practice panhandling increase in number as the weather warms and they vary by gender, age and condition. The hand-held signs vary too, in message and effectiveness, and on another freeway off ramp in Tacoma just a week previous we came upon a 30-something woman sobbing as she stood in waning daylight. Roaring traffic and fumes around the intersection, she looked absolutely stricken and before I could even consider rolling down my window, the light turned green and it was time to to go. I want to help them, and while my concern is always modified by the idea that we make our own beds, it is hard when you see some individuals, like the woman on the offramp crying. These people didn’t exist when we were kids. We might have had the occasional bum pass through, but they never made signs and preyed on the guilt of motorists stuck at lights, and while homelessness and begging don’t always go hand in hand, the two issues are commonly connected. I asked Mom about what homelessness was like when she was young and she said she remembers her dad driving down through Seattle where a large Hooverville
was located in the Sodo area. Her dad was a hard-working businessman with a family and he, like most of the residents of that shanty-town had a distaste for organized charity. Herbert Hoover’s ‘New Deal’ fell short of providing meaningful help to depression-era citizens who were used to working. Every able body worked back then, and the people who couldn’t were anomalies. A disability like a missing limb (that was not uncommon following WW1 and WW2) was not terribly unusual, but a listless freeloader was rare. Back in her Dads day, the Hobos were nearly celebrated for their self-sufficiency and free lifestyle. Remember ‘King of The Road?’

Help on the way: Southbound SR99 corridor buses routed to Fourth Avenue, improving evening commute West Seattle, Burien, and neighboring area bus riders will see more consistent travel times starting Monday, Sept. 9, 2019. After monitoring travel and transit times for buses on First Avenue and identifying significant impacts for commuters, officials from King County Metro and Seattle Department of Transportation announced a service revision that takes southbound buses off First Avenue and on to a pathway that utilizes Second Avenue and Fourth Avenue South. Metro will establish a long-term stop on Second Avenue Extension South between South Washington Street and South Main Street to replace the southbound stop at First Avenue South and South King Street. This service revision comes after Metro and SDOT evaluated alternate pathways and worked to prioritize bus traffic through the city’s central business district. SDOT has implemented signal timing changes on First Avenue to keep northbound and southbound traffic moving and will continue to monitor current conditions. Buses using Second Avenue to connect to Fourth Avenue South will have a second left turn lane from Columbia Street to Second Avenue. These changes were deemed necessary in order to adequately address the flow of traffic along the pathway. Northbound buses will remain on the First Avenue pathway until Alaskan Way opens in early 2020, except for a temporary short-term reroute for when Dearborn Street is closed for viaduct demolition. Northbound routes using SR99 will be on temporary reroute between September 12-21 and will take Fourth Avenue South with stops at Prefontaine Place South and James Street. Ensuring reliable transit in and out of
downtown is a priority during the “Seattle Squeeze,” the period over the next five years as Seattle’s downtown continues to change to meet the needs of a growing city. Regional transportation partners including the Seattle Department of Transportation, the Washington State Department of Transportation, King County Metro, Sound Transit, and the Port of Seattle are all working together to keep people and goods moving safely to and through downtown. Travelers should continue to plan ahead, adjust travel times when possible, prepare for impacts to downtown traffic, and exercise patience. As always, we encourage people to walk, bike, or take public transit whenever possible. “Ongoing construction and disruption on the waterfront hurt Metro’s ability to move people quickly and efficiently to and from West Seattle and Burien, particularly in the evening commute. We directed resources to come up with alternative routes and traffic improvements. Running buses on Second and Fourth avenues should improve speed and reliability, and we will continue to make needed adjustments to make sure Metro is the best way to get around during the Seattle Squeeze, and beyond.” Dow Constantine, King County Executive “During these first few chapters of the Seattle Squeeze, our entire region has come together to be part of the solution and help make room on our roads. Working closely with Metro, the City continues to work to keep transit, people and goods moving. As we’ve closely monitored transit and travel times on 1st Avenue, we have seen the big impact
Raisbeck Aviation High School Teacher selected as 2019 A. Scott Crossfield Aerospace Educator of the Year Scott McComb will be recognized during the 57th Annual National Aviation Hall of Fame Scott McComb, a teacher at Raisbeck Aviation High School, was selected by The National Aviation Hall of Fame as the 2019 A. Scott Crossfield Educator of the Year. McComb heads the science department at Raisbeck Aviation High School and is the founding coach and chair of the Washington State Science Olympiad. He is an American Institute of Aeronautics & Astronautics (AIAA) Founding Advisor and a Green Energy Team Founding Advisor. McCombs’ developed the program of Physics of Flight and Aerospace Engineering, which provides students creative problem-solving techniques. McComb’s curriculum includes activities such as the Wing Beam where students design, build and test the most efficient composite wing beam possible. Other programs include the design, build and testing of heat shields; investigation and evaluation of factors that affect take-off performance in conjunction with flight
test engineers; and the development, build and testing of solar-powered Martian rovers. Over the past fourteen years, McComb has been dedicated to continuing his own scientific and aviation academia by performing scientific research in the Arctic, obtaining his private pilot’s license, interning at both Boeing Flight Test and Blue Origin, and learning computational modeling in physics. “Scott McComb has developed, enhanced and implemented an outstanding program of Aerospace Engineering education at one of the top college-prep STEM schools in the nation,” Therese Tipton, principal of Raisbeck Aviation High School said. “He believes wholeheartedly in the power of encouraging and developing the unique talents of each of his students—he transforms students’ young minds from being hesitant, to being researchers and scientists.” McComb will receive the honor, including a $2,500 cash award, during the NAHF’s Enshrinement events in Denver, Colorado on September 27 and 28. The Crossfield Award, founded in 1986 by NAHF Enshrinee Scott Crossfield, is a juried annual competition to recognize a teacher for his or her exemplary use of aerospace in their classroom curricula.
it’s had on commuters. That’s why I asked the Seattle Department of Transportation to work with Metro to identify alternatives to 1st Avenue, including new routes. We are also making investments in signal timing, bus-only lanes, and more Metro service that will help keep people and transit moving during this new era of tough traffic,” said Seattle Mayor Jenny A. Durkan. “The City of Seattle will continue working closely with our partners at King County Metro to make sure our roads are working as well as possible for buses during this new era of tough traffic.” Jenny Durkan, City of Seattle Mayor “To say the Seattle Squeeze has been rough on those of us who rely on bus service from downtown to West Seattle and Burien is an understatement. We must strive and expect to be a responsive and nimble government and
this is a needed adjustment to address the challenges we’ve experienced this summer. I appreciate the collaboration between King County Metro and Seattle Department of Transportation for developing this thoughtful solution, and look forward to working with both departments to track our commute experience in the coming months.” Joe McDermott, King County Councilmember “West Seattle bus commuters have been contacting me about this crunch and I’ve worked since April to find alternatives. I appreciate Metro, SDOT, the County Executive and the Mayor working to find a cost-effective solution for our bus system, and mitigates any potential obstructions to our Fire Department and emergency responders.” Lisa Herbold, Seattle City Councilmember

Seaside Fettucine.
No kitchen, no problem: favorite camping recipes By Katy Wilkens On my annual kayaking trip around the San Juan Islands, the weather was beautiful, the water smooth as glass most days and the food in a class by itself. I’ve honed these recipes over the past 20 years. Beloved by Boy Scouts and adults alike, they all are low in sodium, which is great for your heart and kidneys. In contrast many “just add water” camping meals are extremely high in sodium and only make you thirsty. These recipes assume: • You have no way to refrigerate or chill food • You have limited water for cooking but might have access to a fire pit • You want to be careful with how much fuel you use • There isn’t a burn ban • If you have an unlimited supply of water, a cooler and all the fuel you want, you’ll have even more choices.

Paintings presented in September at Burien Community Center Paintings by Jacque Carroll are presented in Burien Art Association’s September exhibit at the Burien Community Center. The exhibit runs through September and is open to the public during Center hours, 8:30 a.m.-8 p.m., Monday–Thursday, and 8:30 a.m.-5 p.m., Friday. “My goal, always, is to paint the dance of color,” Jacque said. Jacque’s subject matter is diverse: landscape, portrait, still life. She prefers to paint familiar scenes of the local landscape. Raised in Spokane, Jacque earned her art degree from Spokane Falls Community College, followed later by study with Nina Mikhailenko, a Russian Impressionist painter influenced by Sergei Bongart and Ron Lucas. Jacque’s five years of private lessons with Nina imbued her paintings with
a strong sense of color. Jacque organized and chaired the 2009 Tukwila Paint Out, a plein-air event designed to bring regional artists to this area to capture scenes of Tukwila. Jacque was a Systems Analyst at Boeing for 30 years. Before her Boeing career, she worked as an artist for advertising agencies. Her freelance activity includes a two-year fashion illustration account. Jacque’s paintings have won awards at the Tukwila Art Show and been displayed in Burien, Renton, Maple Valley and Olympia. She is a member of the Artists United Club, a local artists group. All works on display at the Community Center are for sale. Please email burienarts@gmail.com for information on purchasing.

JEAN GODDEN
S
eattle was the favored poster child in the New York Times recently. A lead story by Nicholas Kristof argued that Seattle has discovered the right answer to the war on drugs. It’s no secret that America’s war on drugs has been a sad mistake. Although an American is arrested for drug possession every 25 seconds that still has not turned the tide on narcotics. To the contrary. Today more Americans are dying each year from overdoses than died in the Vietnam, Afghan and Iraq wars combined. This costly national failure has to be contrasted with Seattle’s current approach to dealing with drug use. In Seattle, anyone caught with a small quantity of drugs—an amount consistent with personal use—is not prosecuted. Instead the drug is confiscated and the user steered to social services to get help. Seattle’s LEAD program (short for Law Enforcement Assisted Diversion) is decriminalizing the use of even hard drugs and relying on public health solutions. The program began as a pilot in 2011. At first it was only used in the city’s downtown, partly to stem the spread of open-air drug markets in the inner city. Drug dealers would continue to be prosecuted, but those in possession of smaller amounts of drugs were given a choice: Face arrest or enroll in the LEAD program. The year, 2011, was a difficult one for this city, coming during one of the bleakest years of the Great Recession. But the urgency to do something was there and this idea held out some hope. (Full disclosure: As a city councilmember then overseeing the city budget, I had the unenvied task of cutting elsewhere to pay for the pilot program.) LEAD began small. Since then the program has been extended into other areas of the city. Rationale is that LEAD is substituting a public health model for the lock-’em-up approach that often became just a revolving door. The LEAD program wasn’t cheap when it began, nor is it inexpensive today. It was particularly difficult to justify the estimated $350 per month per participant. That’s far less costly than jail and hospital costs. But, when it comes to husbanding scarce city resources, it is difficult to translate those theoretical
WESTSIDE SEATTLE FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 6, 2019 7 savings into actual expenditures. Seattle’s decision to decriminalize the use of hard drugs might not have succeeded had it not been for strong lobbying and support from an unusual source: Dan Satterberg, the prosecuting attorney for King County, which oversees criminal prosecution within the city. Satterberg had first-hand experience with his late sister’s example, first of drug addiction and then ultimate recovery, helped through supportive services. It was Satterberg who worked with others to help launch the LEAD program, setting Seattle on the road to finding another way to deal with addiction. That approach has shown a good deal of success. A 2017 study found drug
users assigned to LEAD, as contrasted to a control group, were 58 percent less likely to be rearrested. Participants were almost twice as likely to have housing as before and 46 percent more likely to be employed. As the result of Seattle’s positive results, this approach is spreading across the country. Some 59 localities are in the beginning stages of offering LEAD-inspired programs Kristof highlighted the real reason cities like Seattle are leading with addiction solutions: It’s because the federal government has failed to do so. Seattle’s success with LEAD is worth celebrating, even though the program isn’t an end-all to homelessness, which remains our largest problem. Still it’s important to remember that, besides addiction, there
are many other reasons for homelessness: domestic violence, poverty, eviction and mental illness, among them. Fact is: Seattle still has a long way to go to address homelessness. But it certainly counts that the city has developed one pathway and that a number of the drug addicted, individuals who once seemed lost, are now recovering. You can check out several of those successful individuals, tax-paying successes, in the New York Times. Jean Godden is a veteran Seattle PI and Seattle Times newspaperwoman and city councilwoman.

There are several blogs serving the Westside—but none of them pack the 1-2 combination punch of Westside Seattle and westsideseattle.com. In this digital age, more and more retailers are realizing the power of combining brick-and-mortar stores with their online presence.

Reuben’s Brews commemorates seventh anniversary at three of their Ballard locations Reuben’s Brews is turning seven and will be celebrating the occasion with an anniversary beer release and a party at three of their Ballard locations on Saturday, September 7. Festivities will feature both brand-new and classic Reuben’s Brews beers on tap, tasty food, live music, giveaways, and more. Cans of “Then and Now 7th Anniversary IPA” will be available at The Taproom starting at 11 a.m., and feature a unique label revealing Reuben’s Brews’ design refresh. In addition to all-day events at its Taproom (5010 14th Ave. N.W.) and Brewtap (800 N.W. 46th St.), Reuben’s Brews will be hosting a pop-up event at its pilot brewery and original taproom (1406 N.W. 53rd St.), which has been closed to the public since 2015. Featuring a throwback vibe to when the doors first homelessness in a lasting way? Complex problems require solutions that are multi-faceted. The laws that currently exist should be revamped to allow police to have more authority and the court systems need to incarcerate offenders long enough to allow social programs to be administered. One program that seems to be working in Finland and in the U.S. is called ‘Housing First’ and it is based on the supposition that social problems like substance abuse and mental health are more easily remedied if the patron has a permanent address. The disadvantaged are given housing leases that they are required to pay rent for, along with government benefits to help make that happen. All of this costs taxpayers of course, but the concept is to provide immediate stability at a lessor cost than what it takes to repair issues that are left to the decay of neglect .
opened back in 2012, this location will have the five beers it opened with on tap: American Brown, American Rye, Robust Porter, Nitro Dry Stout, and Roggenbier. Visitors can also try this year’s anniversary brew on draft. Beer enthusiasts are encouraged to stop by all locations and try the beers, plus pick up some very special swag: • Taproom: The first 100 visitors will receive a free commemorative glass. • Brewtap: Free limited edition commemorative poster. • Pilot Brewery: “Take your pint” giveaway. Buy a pint and take the glass home for free! Locations and Times: • The Taproom; 11 a.m. - 10 p.m. • The BrewTap; Noon - 10 p.m. • The Original Location; Noon - 6 p.m. We already have charitable organizations that offer necessary help like United Way and Union Gospel Mission, The Millionair Club and Goodwill. And according to the Coalition For Homelessness, deeply subsidized affordable housing is the most promising first step solution. So when we see someone on a street corner holding a cardboard sign, should we respond or ignore? One suggestion from the Portland Rescue Mission is to hand them a ‘Care Kit’ in the form of a clear, zip lock bag with bottled water, a fast food gift card, a granola bar and hygiene kit. A list of local shelters along with a note of encouragement is useful too.

Lessons I have learned from my 20-year struggle with fear and anxiety
By Stan Popovich Do you currently struggle with fear and anxiety and wish you could talk to someone who can relate to your situation? If so, I dealt with fear and anxiety for over 20 years and here are some lessons I learned during my mental health struggles.
1. Listen To The Professionals And Not Your Friends: Your friends may mean well, but when it comes down to it, the professionals know your situation more than anyone. They know what you are going through and are trained to deal with your situation. Consult with a

counselor when you have questions about your mental health issues. 2. Distance Yourself From People Who Give You A Hard Time: Distance yourself from those people who won’t make an effort to help understand what you are going through. You need to surround yourself with positive and supportive people. I felt better when I avoided those people who would constantly argue with me regarding my anxieties and stresses. 3. Focus On The Facts of Your Situation And Not Your Thoughts: When people are depressed they rely on their fearful and negative thoughts. Your fearful thoughts are exaggerated and are not based on reality. When you are depressed, focus on the facts of your current situation and not on what you think. 4. Learn From Your Experiences: In every anxiety-related situation I experienced, I learned what worked, what did not work, and what I needed to improve on as I managed my fears and anxieties. For example, you have a lot of anxiety and you decide to take a walk to help you feel better. The next time you feel anxious you can remind yourself that

you got through it the last time by taking a walk. 5. You Can’t Predict The Future Regardless What Your Thoughts May Tell You: No one can predict the future with one hundred percent certainty. Even if the thing that you are afraid of does happen, there are circumstances and factors that you can’t predict which can be used to your advantage. For instance, you miss the deadline for a project at work. Suddenly, your boss comes to your office and tells you that the deadline is extended and that he forgot to tell you the day before. This unknown factor changes everything. 6. Things Change Over Time: Regardless of your current situation, things do not stay the same. You may feel very bad today, but it won’t last forever. Everything changes over time and this includes your current mental health issues.
