TREATMENT SALES TAX SUMMARY
The Treatment Sales Tax (TST) is an important local funding stream that works alongside federal and state
funding such as Medicaid to meet mental health and substance use needs in Thurston County, Washington. This
1/10th of 1% sales tax has been collected since 2009. Funds are spent on a variety of services including
treatment courts, services at correctional facilities, community-based programs, and programs serving youth and
families. Programs funded with TST aim to reduce justice involvement, emergency room use, health care costs,
and public assistance.

participants to graduate early when appropriate.

Thurston County Treatment Courts
operate to reduce participant risk for
future justice system involvement by
connecting participants with appropriate
support and services specific to each
Treatment Court. This approach has
been found to be more effective than
traditional sentencing in holding
individuals accountable, promoting
positive behavior change, engaging
participants with necessary support and
services, providing continuous judicially
and community supervision, and
promoting community safety. TST funds
are provided to operate activities of
each Treatment Court, including the
efforts of the Prosecuting Attorney’s
Office and the Public Defense Office.

“Over the last year I was able to work with a young person who over the course of the treatment episode secured an apartment,
job, driving permit and general medical care. At the time this youth began WISe they were homeless and experiencing significant
mental health challenges – often suicidality… The real success was helping the youth use their coping skills and their natural supports, which has resulted in this youth staying out of inpatient for over a year. Prior to the WISe intervention, the longest stretch this youth was able to stay in the community and not spend time in hospitals was 3 months, since the youth turned 15. As of today the youth’s
intervention is closed and the youth is turning 21 soon. Their plans are to go to college and after two years of recovery they would like
to work in this field as a peer while they complete college. WISe works!”

“Program successes include the collaboration of the Transitions program with other organizations for the benefit of clients. A
specific example was the referral of a client to Family Recovery Court... This allowed the client to start the necessary steps
required by child protective services for reunification prior to their release from Thurston County Work Release. The client
obtained clean and sober housing through the Transitions program, temporary funding through Northwest Resources and
a referral to Family Support Center who will provide case management and a housing voucher for an apartment when
reunification is possible. Collaboration provides a holistic approach, addressing clients’ various needs and barriers to
success.”- Transitions & Medication Management

Two services launched in 2019 provide specialized support for justice-involved
individuals with behavioral health needs: a specialized probation caseload through District Court, and a diversion program
through Pretrial Services. Both aim to ensure individuals’ treatment
needs are met and reduce the change of reoffending.
