The Lynnwood Library is hosting Washington State Department of Social Health and Services’ mobile outreach van on the third Thursday of each month — connecting residents with local resources including accessibility aids, EBT services, language interpretation  services and child care resources.

This month, the DSHS Mobile Outreach office will be available Sept. 18 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Lynnwood Library: 19200 44th Ave. W.

The state DSHS has eight mobile office trucks that embark throughout Washington daily. The goal is to meet people where they are and provide services to people who may not live near a DSHS office, according to the state’s website.

The event provides onsite access to services and resources including:

  • Same-day service eligibility determinations
  • Chair lift accessibility
  • Hearing impaired access
  • Language interpretation services
  • Walk-up windows
  • EBT card services
  • ID vouchers
  • Submit applications for the Child Care Subsidy Program.

Those in need of food, financial, child care or medical assistance can learn more and apply at the Washington Connection website.

To learn more about the Lynnwood mobile outreach event and other resources, visit the city’s Human Resources Department’s website.
