Mission
The mission of Solid Ground’s Advisory Council is to provide a forum for Solid Ground clients’ voices to be valued, heard and acted upon.

Purpose
The purpose of Solid Ground’s Advisory Council is to:

• Provide feedback on programs and proposals before they are taken to the Board of Directors.
• Identify gaps in services (unmet needs) and current issues members may be experiencing – and share ideas about ways that services can be improved.
• Provide legislative advocacy: Determine critical issues for the Washington State legislature to address, and help advocate for change by testifying about these issues at hearings.
• Share experiences directly with Solid Ground donors.

Involvement includes...

• Be available for meetings once a month (currently the 3rd Monday of each month).
• Actively voice your opinions and share your experiences with the group.
• Make a commitment to building community to end poverty.

Solid Ground provides reimbursement for transportation to/from meetings, childcare and dinner.
