In Olympia, our office is on the ancestral homelands of the dxʷsqʷaliʔabš (Nisqually), sqʷax̌sədabš (Squaxin), and Stl’pulmsh (Cowlitz) peoples, whose care for these waters and forests since time immemorial continues to sustain life today.

It’s also a day to recognize that men face unique mental health challenges, including a much higher risk of suicide. Reaching out, checking in, and supporting each other can make a life-changing difference.

Our thoughts and hearts are with Amber and her loved ones, and all of our siblings in the trades who have been impacted by this senseless tragedy.

Please be safe and take care of yourselves and each other.

Amber's murder at the hands of her co-worker is a wake-up call about the real danger of harassment, hostility, and unchecked violence on job sites. We must honor Amber by doing everything we can to create safer and more respectful workplaces for women and all.

Construction workers face some of the highest rates of stress, depression, and suicide. We must continue to break the silence and remind each other: you’re not alone, and it’s okay to ask for help.

Let’s look out for one another, on and off the job site.
