Evergreen Treatment Services
We are proud to announce Suzanne Hittman, longtime friend of ETS and philanthropist in Seattle, as the 2025 Evergreen Trailblazer Award recipient!
Suzanne has spent her life as a catalyst for change through her roles as a social worker, professional fundraiser, Seattle School Board president, and political activist. Now in her 90s, she continues to meet with city leaders and speak truth to power about addiction, housing, and recovery.
Suzanne’s journey with Evergreen Treatment Services began with a voicemail in 2017 after she read a bold article on safe consumption spaces in the Puget Sound Business Journal. At a time when few dared to publicly support harm reduction, Suzanne stood up and said, “Let’s talk.”
Since then, Suzanne has become one of ETS’ most generous supporters including being the first to make a major gift to redevelop ETS’ new state-of-the-art treatment clinic in SODO.
ETS is grateful for Suzanne’s leadership, advocacy, and heart. Please join us in celebrating Suzanne Hittman, an extraordinary woman helping move mountains for recovery in the Puget Sound region.
Congratulations to Suzanne! Proud to know you.
