Mission & Values
Our nonprofit mission is to provide our residents with the modern, elegant accommodations, the genuine community, and the everyday safety they deserve. Because we are operated by Northwest Home for Aged, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit since 1943, we are blessed with a legacy of generous philanthropic giving that allows us to deliver a level of accommodations and service that other retirement communities struggle to match.

Park Plaza Senior Living staff members take real pride in their work, and many have been part of the community for over two decades. From our Director of Community Living to our Rabbi, music director, and activities team, every member of the staff is here to provide an excellent experience and a high quality of life for each resident.

Their stewardship, paired with the support of our Executive Director and donors, keeps Park Plaza Senior Living on a strong, sustainable footing for generations of Jewish seniors to come.
