NOTE: The 08/06/2024 payments to providers is delayed one day due to a technical issue. This includes all payments, electronic and paper. It is now resolved and payments will go out tomorrow. Thank you for your patience.

We receive some funding from both the state Legislature and the federal government.

There are two Washington State Funds that support our program:

  • State General Fund—(This is an appropriation from the Legislature)
  • 01-F Fund—(This is a dedicated fund from inmate phone fees)

Federal grant funds come from the U.S. Department of Justice. They reimburse 75% of net payments from state funds three years earlier.

Administrative costs are paid out of the state General Fund. Claim benefits are paid from all three funds (State General Fund, 01-F and Federal Grant).
