VIBRANT LIVES FOR ALL

Recreation and community for adults with developmental disabilities

WHAT WE DO

We’re on a mission to enrich the lives
of adults with intellectual and development disabilities.

Community

Fostering friendships

Recreation

Providing meaningful activity

Inclusion

Welcoming a wide range of needs

Respite

Supporting families and caregivers

BUILDING COMMUNITY

Our programs are built around peer community – an essential element often missing for the adult IDD population. Members typically attend program with the same group of peers each week to encourage long-lasting friendship and connection.

FUN FOR ALL

Program members enjoy a wide variety of recreational activities, field trips, and interest-based classes. Program calendars are crafted to provide rich and varied experiences fitted to the needs of each member.

A PLACE WHERE EVERYONE BELONGS

Our highly inclusive enrollment policy means we serve members other programs won’t. Our staff provides personal care, including toileting and feeding, at no additional cost.

RESPITE FOR CAREGIVERS

Our commitment to serving our members extends to the families who care for them. Giving these amazing parents and caregivers a break is central to our mission.

OUR IMPACT

From humble beginnings serving seven members in one small town, Bridge of Promise has grown to serve more than 120 members each week across the greater Seattle area.
