(formerly Vintage Park)
In 1993, we linked four apartment units together and converted the space into classrooms, computer labs, and family meeting areas, to open our largest family center.
Located in the heart of Burien, The Heights at Burien has 543 apartments inside the complex, which makes it one of the largest complexes in the Puget Sound area. A majority of the residents here are Latino. There is also a large group of indigenous Mexican immigrants known as Purépecha. The Purépecha and their language date back to the time of the Aztecs.
Like all of our sites, we offer English Language Learner (ELL) classes, translation services, and family advocacy services to help recent immigrant families navigate unfamiliar education and governmental systems, so they can thrive.

“You have helped my family a lot. I like how New Futures has been involved with my kids and with me, teaching me how to be involved in my children’s education – you have helped me to be a better mother.”
