What is Community Inclusion?

SAILS Washington partners with the Developmental Services Administration and the PASRR team to provide you with meaningful activities in your community. Do you enjoy hiking, cooking classes, arts and crafts, walks with the neighborhood club, … the list is endless? Do you want to make friends?

We want to help you get out and enjoy your life by doing the things you love to do or want to try with people in your community.
