Land Acknowledgement

We acknowledge the original inhabitants of this area, the Coast Salish people.

 

Since time immemorial, they have hunted, fished, gathered, and taken care of these lands. We respect their sovereignty, their right to self-determination, and honor their sacred spiritual connection with the land and water.

Sherwood Believes in Abilities 

Sherwood believes in the abilities and potential of every individual. For more than 60 years, we have worked to ensure that children and adults with disabilities have access to the supports and opportunities they need to live, learn, and participate in their communities. Our services are grounded in respect, dignity, and the belief that every person has the right to make choices about their own life.

We are committed to supporting families, reducing barriers to participation, and empowering each individual’s unique path toward independence and connection. Our approach focuses on providing person-centered services that meet people where they are and respond to their goals and strengths. Sherwood values a wide range of experiences and perspectives among our staff and board, which helps us better understand and serve the communities we support.
