Don’t let a sweetheart deal silence our community voice!
Providence Health & Services wants Happy Valley to re-zone 145 acres of farmland to build a new hospital. Providence wants the Happy Valley City Council to approve this change without requiring accountability to our community.

If the land is re-zoned this way, residents will have little opportunity to decide what is built in our community. read more Mission:Seattle Documentary about Providence Employees "Seeking Fairness at Providence for a Voice on the Job" tells the story of workers at Providence Health & Services and their ongoing organizing effort.
