Peggy presented an overview and personal touch to our Clark County Veterans Therapeutic Court program and their needs. They are looking for Marine Mentors for the program. For more information about any of the Therapeutic Specialty Courts, please contact Shauna McCloskey, 360-397-2431 or shauna.mccloskey@clark.wa.gov
