Everett-based Compass Health has issued a security advisory to clients
that one of its laptop computers was stolen in late June - but there is
no indication that the personal data and social security numbers
contained in the computer were used for identity theft.

The advisory affects a limited number of people, including those served
by Catholic Community Services and SeaMar. Both groups have Seattle
offices.

People affected by this theft should have received letters from Compass
Health, an agency that helps people who suffer from mental illness.
