About us

ABOUT US

Group Action for Peninsula People (GAPP) has a long history of serving individuals with developmental disabilities. In fact we have been a 501C3 since the 90s.

Over the years we have acquired

four properties that serve 18 individuals. Our homes in Tacoma, Puyallup, and Bainbridge are staffed independently of GAPP. We keep in close contact with their service providers to ensure that the homes

are maintained to provide a safe environment for residents and

their staffs.

GAPP manages the day to day operations and care of the GAPP Adult Family Home residents, and it is where we have our main offices. Our volunteer board members are grateful to the dedicated staff members who provide excellent care so our residents can fully enjoy their lives. Our staff has a challenging profession and we are fortunate to have them be a part of our organization.

A strong emphasis is placed upon resident choice and healthy living. Residents are involved in Special Olympics sports including bowling, softball, basketball, soccer and swimming. Two residents work in our community. Residents visit the YMCA weekly. Attendance at art classes, at sporting and theatrical events including plays, musicals, and movies as well as monthly dances are among the activities enjoyed by residents.
