History
The Greenwood Home was established more than 40 years ago as a small group home for adults living with developmental disabilities. Clients would find their way to the home from institutional living centers such as the Fircrest School and Rainier School. These clients could be supported by staff in a much smaller, homelike setting that allowed them the freedom to live in the greater Seattle community among its residents.. The board contacted Solid Ground in the middle 1990's and this organization began work with the families, board members and community to find funding for a new home completed in the summer of 2001 At present, the Greenwood Home functions as a non-profit, 501C3 corporation established for the purpose of assuring the health, safety and happiness of the clients we serve in the home. The home is operated with limited overhead and monies provided by the Department of Social and Health Services for care of the clients in the home are
