Seattle's Downtown Ambassadors tackle trash, graffiti and homelessness in cleanup effort

The Downtown Ambassadors program in Seattle has significantly expanded its efforts to clean up the city, now covering more than 300 square blocks with 165 ambassadors working daily to clean up the city streets. The initiative, which addresses issues from graffiti and vandalism to homelessness, has seen the teams spend nearly 283,000 hours in the community over the past year. They have removed more than 1.2 million gallons of trash and nearly 49,000 graffiti tags and stickers, according to a report from the Downtown Seattle Association (DSA). "You got to have some type of heart, some type of feeling for these people, like you just can't come out here and do the job," Master Lindsey, a downtown ambassador, said. The downtown ambassadors are also tasked with checking in on the unhoused and connecting them with resources. -------------------------------------------------- For more on the story: https://komonews.com/news/local/downt... _______________ Stay up to date with our social media: KOMO News on Facebook:   / komonews   KOMO News on Twitter:   / komonews   KOMO News on Instagram:   / komo4   KOMO News on TikTok:   / komo4seattle   Subscribe to KOMO on YouTube:    / @komonews   Watch more top local news stories:    • Видео   For all of the day’s top local and national news, visit http://www.komonews.com/ Watch our live newscasts and other live video at https://komonews.com/watch Download our iOS App: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/komo-...
