Parkview Group Home

Parkview Group Home overlooks Volunteer Park on Capitol Hill in Seattle. It has been a part of the diverse and vibrant Capitol Hill community since 1967. Originally established to provide residential support services to children with developmental disabilities, Parkview has developed a proud tradition of progressive, client-centered services. In 1995, we shifted our focus to serve adults because the people receiving service at the time were nearing adulthood. Because of this, Parkview has been able to continue to serve the same individuals as they transitioned from youth to adult services.

Currently, six young adults live at Parkview and most have known each other and lived together since childhood. They are close and enjoy each other's company, but maintain their individuality with different interests, friends, and lifestyles.

Committed Direct Support Professionals provide around-the-clock support, helping to create an empowering environment in which to live, learn, and grow. Parkview attempts to balance health and safety with power and choice. We work to enhance the status of people with disabilities in their community and create opportunities for genuine relationships. We believe people with developmental disabilities have the fundamental rights to live free of discrimination, have lives which reflect their personal preferences, be recognized for their contributions to their community, and to truly experience a rich, fulfilling life.
