Spot the Best Starts Bus!  

Published March 25, 2025

About 30 people, including staff from Best Starts, community organizations, and families who access Best Starts supports, gathered mid-March to celebrate the send-off of a King County Metro Bus fully wrapped in a Best Starts design.  

A group of 30 people gather for a group photo in front of a multicolor bus with Best Starts branding and photos of babies, kids, young people, and families.

The fully-wrapped articulated bus will be on South King County routes for the next year with the intention to generate community connection and understanding about the work Best Starts does in partnership with community organizations to reach babies, kids, young people, and families.   

The bus features photos of community members from King County, who connect with our community partners to build connections, access resources, and pursue their goals. At the send-off event, families who were featured in photos on the bus got a chance to see the design up close.  

Spot the bus and win swag!

If you see the bus out and about, take a photo of it and tag Best Starts on Instagram, LinkedIn, Facebook, or email us at best.starts@kingcounty.gov. Then we will enter you into a drawing and you will have a chance to win swag.  

Best Starts thanks the families and community partners who took part in this project:
