Agency info
Community Living
Community Living, formerly Spring Acres Group Homes, is a private non-profit agency, which was started in 1969 by a handful of Yakima parents. These parents wanted a local alternative to having to place their developmentally disabled children outside of Yakima into a large State operated institution. Their efforts resulted in the opening of the State's first group home in Naches, which was home to six young women. Community Living currently serves one-hundred twenty three individuals, of which, forty-two reside in Yakima, nineteen reside in Sunnyside, thirty-three reside in Bellevue and twenty-nine reside in Kent.
