Judge Jennifer Azure

I had the chance to attend this community event in the evening in Moses Lake. Judge Gwinn and I were both at WSU the same time as Ryan D Leaf. ! I will
say hearing his story provided some amazing insight and a much different perspective for me.

I was a juvenile attorney for many years…and this story was an important reminder that Mental health and addiction take a lot of different forms, can affect anyone and it starts early.

Thank you to Judge Brian Gwinn and Grant County District CourtCommunity Court for taking the lead on this opportunity.

Four amazing gentlemen graduated Recovery Court last week! Thank you for allowing our Team to be part of your journeys. Keep pushing forward!

Grateful to attend and support our Mental Health Court and these amazing graduates yesterday!! Benton County, WA Therapeutic Courts While therapeutic court is only a portion of our jobs as judges, it is certainly one of the most powerful and rewarding.

So fun to have Boys & Girls Clubs of Benton and Franklin Counties join us for an early 2026! Thank you to all of our volunteers!

Appreciated the opportunity to attend this morning’s breakfast benefiting the Columbia Valley Center for Recovery with some of our Benton County, WA Therapeutic Courts Team. Excited to see this center strengthen local families, improve public safety, and build a healthier Tri-Cities.

So incredibly proud of our graduates and our Therapeutic Courts Team. So much love and hard work!!

Best Team and great programming at this year’s conference!
