Northwest Center is a social enterprise organization dedicated to improving the lives and inclusion of people with developmental disabilities.
With annual revenue of more than $40,000,000 Northwest Center employs more than 1,000 people in its programs and social enterprise businesses.
Northwest Center believes it is time for a radical shift not just in how we talk about people with developmental disabilities, but how we include them. Let kids share the same classrooms, playgrounds and high expectations. Hire people with life experiences different than our own.
