The PI Covid 19 WA Taskforce was stood up by PICA-WA in April to address the devastating impact of Covid 19 on Pasifika communities. Our PI Covid 19 Pierce Team has been working around the clock the harms in Pierce County from community engagement, standing up PI testings, supplying PPE supplies, and helping families access economic resources. Our partners and allies in Pierce County include: Tacoma Pierce County Health District.
Rachel Hoffman, Marshallese PI, is with the Marshallese Women’s Association and serves as one of our leads in Spokane County. She also coordinates our PICAWA food distribution in Snohomish.
Mia Vakalutukali, Fijian PI, serves a Board member for PICAWA, coordinates the PICAWA food distribution for King County and is our other lead for Snohomish County.
