Description
The Civilian Intervention Program, administered by the Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT), supports local initiatives that establish or expand nonpunitive responses to nonmoving violations. Eligible activities include helmet vouchers, fee offsets, fix-it tickets, repair vouchers, and other civilian interventions that provide practical solutions for vehicle equipment failures affecting low-income road users.
The program emphasizes locally developed proposals, including programs involving community-led organizations. Applicants are encouraged to incorporate equity-specific data and consider equity-related safety risk factors when developing their plans, recognizing that traditionally disadvantaged populations are disproportionately affected in many communities. The Washington Tracking Network is identified as a resource for this work.
