About the Resource Guide 

White River Families First Coalition fi rst published a community 

resource guide in 2004. The goal was to provide a locally based 

publication that shared both supportive resources as well as the 

many opportunities and activities available right in this area. As the 

community and the resources changed and grew, so did the need 

to publish another edition. 

The 2008 edition focuses on the entire Pierce County plateau, 

including the communities of Bonney Lake, Buckley, Wilkeson, 

Carbonado, South Prairie and Prairie Ridge. Most of the information 

in this guide is within these boundaries. Additional resources 

in Enumclaw, Sumner and other surrounding communities are 

sometimes included by the researchers. Every attempt was made 

to be accurate, complete and inclusive. 

The volunteers and sponsoring organizations do not specifi cally 

endorse or recommend any individual organizations or businesses 

listed in this guide.
