In response to the COVID-19 pandemic this spring, Verdant launched free, confidential counseling for residents of South Snohomish County who would like to make an appointment to talk with a licensed counselor due to anxiety and other emotions related to COVID-19. Washington has also launched a statewide support program called Washington Listens. This service runs Monday – Friday from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. and weekends from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m.
