About us

Rooted in Community. Driven by Purpose.

New Horizons Social Services was founded on the belief that every individual — regardless of ability — deserves the opportunity to live a full, connected, and meaningful life.

Our mission

Why We Do This Work

At New Horizons Social Services, our mission is to empower individuals with developmental disabilities to reach their fullest potential — and to support the families, caregivers, and providers who walk alongside them every day.

We believe that meaningful change happens through consistent, compassionate, and individualized support. Every person we work with has unique strengths, goals, and challenges — and our services are designed to meet them where they are.

As a contracted provider through Washington State's Developmental Disabilities Administration (DDA), we are committed to delivering high-quality, evidence-informed services that make a real difference in people's lives.

"Every individual deserves the opportunity to live a full, connected, and meaningful life."

What guides us

Our Core Values

Person-Centered

We put the individual at the center of everything we do — honoring their goals, preferences, and right to self-determination.

Compassionate

We approach every interaction with empathy, patience, and genuine care for the people we serve and the families who support them.

Collaborative

We work as partners — with clients, families, caregivers, and DDA — to build coordinated, effective support plans.

Accountable

We hold ourselves to the highest standards of professional practice and are committed to continuous improvement in everything we do.

What we offer

Two Services. One Commitment.

New Horizons Social Services provides two specialized services through Washington State DDA — Life Skills and Staff & Family Consultation — each designed to address a distinct but complementary need.

Life Skills

Individualized support to help clients build healthy relationships, adapt to challenges, and improve their quality of life in the community.

Staff & Family Consultation
