The Housing First Approach: A Documentary

Today, we’re bringing you the best from newsrooms across Washington.

First, rising diesel prices are squeezing the Pacific Northwest fishing industry. They're cutting into profits and adding new uncertainty to an already challenging business.

Next, for around 15 years, people have slowly dug up mammoth bones near the Tri-Cities. Along the way, people have made a lot of other discoveries.

And finally, renters in six apartment complexes in Tacoma have voted to form unions in the last six months.
