VISION
"The Opportunity Foundation envisions all people living, learning, and working together."
LIVING
There’s no question that everyone thrives when they are able live side by side with friends and neighbors as a part of inclusive communities. The Opportunity Foundation’s residential program has provided support services in variety of different settings for individuals with disabilities; surrounded by caring people who support their goals and celebrate what makes them unique. Whether living in one of our professionally staffed homes or relying on our care team while living independently, every person is given the full benefit of our expertise, our compassion and our respect.
LEARNING
Everyone is on a lifelong journey of learning and growth. In partnership with the people we serve we explore what it means to be socially proficient, learn independent living skills, and develop employment readiness. Our programs and services are tailored to each person’s needs. Our goal is to foster the highest level of personal and professional growth in each and every one of the individuals enrolled in our programs.
WORKING
When you ask a person with a disability what they want most, the list varies but some answers are very common: independence; recognition; and integration into community. At the Opportunity Foundation, we feel that meaningful, integrated employment provides all these things and more for people of diverse abilities.
Discovery and Career Development
Employment is one of the keys for an individual to engage with the community, gain independence and build a strong sense of self and confidence. Discovery is the first step in identifying a person’s desires, interests, goals and skills in order to create a profile for each person to better facilitate a good match of employees to employers in community-based employment. This process includes visits to various businesses, classroom instruction, and on-the-job training.
Career development goes hand-in-hand with the discovery process by developing long-term plans that are designed to lend clarity and set goals for those individuals who enter the workforce. Just like you and me, the people we serve want and need an avenue for growth and variety in their choices of employment opportunities. We offer the tools to successfully pursue those choices. By hiring people of diverse abilities you add value to your workplace.
