The High Point Neighborhood Center - where it all comes together.
This state-of-the-art neighborhood center will be designed to meet the diverse needs of the High Point neighborhood - a vibrant mixed-income community in West Seattle. Within its walls, preschoolers will learn and play together in Neighborhood House's Head Start program, adults will receive on-site job training and access to case workers, and teenagers will gather with their peers after school.
The center will double as an environmental learning center - a LEED gold-certified building where visitors can learn how reducing our own consumption of energy and natural resources can improve the quality of life for all. The building integrates seamlessly with the surrounding High Point neighborhood, which is dedicated to sustainable and green development.
We need your support to make this dream a reality. To learn more, please take a few moments to explore our campaign Web site. Here you can browse through our campaign brochure, view construction plans, and learn just what it means to "go green."
