Community Involvement

Community Service crews provide services to local government agencies such the Olympic Natural Resource Center, the Quillayute Valley School District, Quillayute Valley Park and Recreation District and non–profit organizations such as the Forks Museum and West End Youth League. The items designed and built by the Toy Shop, which are crafted with donated tools and materials are donated to the Quillayute Valley Scholarship Auction, Cherish Our Children and others.

Olympic Corrections Center supports the Department’s goal of working for sustainable, safe communities. The facility consistently looks for ways to save energy, reduce waste, and become more efficient in its plant operations. Sustainability is also demonstrated through the compost program, a horticulture program, recycling program and transitioning to energy saving appliances and installing water meters.

The Matthew House provides bus transportation to Olympic Corrections Center on the second and third Saturdays of the month from Seattle. Arrangements can be made by emailing the Matthew House Van or, calling 360-794-8720.
