Community-based Supportive Homes

OPTIONS FOR SUPPORTED HOUSING | Multiple Locations in WA

Since 2007, Environmental Works has partnered with Options for Supported Housing, formerly Foundation For the Challenged, in designing community-based living options for people with developmental disabilities (many of whom also have physical disabilities).  EW has collaborated on the design of over 40 houses for OSH, located throughout western Washington, including Centralia, Olympia, Puyallup, Longview, Kirkland, Shoreline, Marysville, and Everett.

Options for Supported Housing homes usually accommodate 3 or 4 residents in a single-family home.  Most are adaptive remodels of existing single-family residences, featuring voluntary accessibility, useful life, and green building improvements.  EW has also designed a new four-bedroom house and two duplexes for OSH.  EW works closely with OSH and residents’ care providers to ensure each home best suits the needs of its future residents.
