Parkview Group Home has been a staple in the Capitol Hill community in Seattle since 1967, providing residential support services to individuals with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities. Originally serving children with IDDs, the home made a transition to caring for adults with IDDs in 1995 as the original clients reached adulthood. The home currently houses six adult residents who have known each other since childhood, fostering a close-knit community where each individual maintains their own interests, friends, and hobbies.
Committed Direct Support Professionals provide round-the-clock care at Parkview Group Home, creating an empowering environment for residents to live, learn, and grow. Safety is balanced with power and choice, giving residents the opportunity to lead the lives they desire. The philosophy at Parkview is centered around enhancing the status of people with IDDs in their community and fostering genuine relationships. Residents are encouraged to live free from discrimination, be recognized for their contributions, and live fulfilling lives that align with their personal preferences.
The Parkview Group Home expresses gratitude to the Wockner Foundation for their unwavering support during the COVID-19 pandemic and beyond. In 2021, the home received a substantial grant from the Boeing Employees Community Fund, which was used to purchase a brand new hybrid mini-van for the residents. This investment demonstrates a commitment to keeping residents and staff safe and healthy during challenging times. Parkview Group Home continues to prioritize the well-being and quality of life of its residents, striving to create an inclusive and supportive environment where individuals with IDDs can thrive.
