September 18, 2026 by Lorena Castaneda

Lifehouse, a nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting people with intellectual and developmental disabilities, is expanding its presence in the North Bay with a new location at the Petaluma Marina Business Center, next to the Sheraton Petaluma. Lifehouse has entered into a lease agreement with Basin Street Properties for the property, providing the organization with significantly more space to support its growing North Bay operations.

The expanded location at 755 Baywood Drive will give Lifehouse additional room for staff and services while providing a convenient and welcoming setting for the individuals, families and community partners it serves and is projected to open late October. The move reflects Lifehouse’s continued growth in the North Bay and its commitment to ensuring that its services can grow alongside the needs of the community.

“We are very excited about this next chapter for Lifehouse in the North Bay,” said Nancy Dow Moody, CEO of Lifehouse. “Our services and the number of people we support in the North Bay continue to grow, and we needed a space that would allow us to meet that growth. This new location gives our team the room we need while strengthening our presence and our ability to serve individuals and families throughout the region.”

For more than 70 years, Lifehouse has helped people with intellectual and developmental disabilities build meaningful, fulfilling lives with greater independence, connection and participation in their communities.

Today, Lifehouse supports more than 370 individuals throughout the Bay Area through a broad range of services and programs, including residential and supported living services, employment and community inclusion, recreation and family support.

Lifehouse’s North Bay programs are an important part of the organization’s mission, providing individuals and families with support and opportunities close to home. The expanded Petaluma location will provide greater capacity for Lifehouse to continue developing its services, supporting its staff and responding to the evolving needs of the North Bay community.

“Basin Street Properties is pleased to welcome Lifehouse to Petaluma Marina Business Center,” said Jacob Chaparian, Vice President of Leasing at Basin Street Properties. “Lifehouse provides such valuable services to our community, and we are happy to be part of their continued growth in the North Bay.”

The partnership between Lifehouse and Basin Street Properties represents an investment in the future of Lifehouse’s North Bay services and the people and families who depend on them. As the organization continues to grow, the new Petaluma location will provide the space and flexibility needed to strengthen its work throughout the region.
