Are you passionate about staying in your own home as you age?
NEST (North East Seattle Together) is a grass-roots community dedicated to ensuring that as we grow older, we can continue to live safely and confidently in our own homes, in the neighborhoods we love.
NEST is reaching out to residents in the Bryant, Hawthorne Hills, Inverness, Laurelhurst, Maple Leaf, Matthews Beach, Meadowbrook, Ravenna, Roosevelt, Sandpoint, University District, View Ridge, Wedgwood, and Windermere neighborhoods. The geographic boundaries are east to Lake Washington, north to 110th, west to I-5 and south to the Montlake Cut. [Click for map]
We are a 501(c)3 non-profit organization creating a virtual “village,” an innovative, new approach to “aging in community” that is inspiring neighbors to organize, incorporate, and take charge. There are four dozen other villages across the country. We hope to be the first in Seattle!
