Bellevue Work Crew is a program developed as an alternative means to fulfill Court-related obligations for eligible participants. Completed hours may be applied towards Probation related fees and program costs. If authorized by the Court and/or Prosecutor, completed hours may be applied towards community service requirements, mandatory conditions of a case or in lieu of jail sentences or sanctions.

The Bellevue Work Crew program is intended to help provide participants with an opportunity to develop strong work habits, learn new skills, make amends and be a part of a team that provides meaningful services to the local community.

Qualified participants perform various outdoor tasks such as lopping overgrown bushes and shrubs, pruning, cleaning structures, removing debris, washing vehicles, and transporting bark in wheelbarrows to improve walking trails. Jobsites are generally at parks, fields, and farms in the City of Bellevue.

New referrals may be accepted by the King County District Court – Bellevue Division, King County District Court-Redmond Division, and internally by Probation Officers.
