History

In 2002, a group of people with similar challenges in finding quality care for loved ones with Parkinson’s disease, came together to form the Puget Sound Housing Alliance for Parkinson’s Disease (PuSH for PD). They saw a great community need for a place which offered the expertise to provide high quality care for people with a complex and unpredictable illness, as well as a caring and encouraging living environment.

For the past eight years, this group of people has interviewed people living with Parkinson’s, their families, residential care providers and physicians. They have consulted architects as well as landscape and interior designers. They have raised funds toward achieving their goal.

Today, they are the Parkinson’s Project. And they have a plan in place to create a vibrant, healthy, supportive place for people with Parkinson’s to live with optimism, confidence and companionship.
