We are an organization of people with developmental disabilities interested in becoming strong leaders, training and developing leadership skills, and becoming equal partners in policy and legislation that affect our lives.  We are a group of people with disabilities who are committed to making life better for people with disabilities everywhere in Oregon.

Why do we care?

We want to be active leaders. Some of us have lived in institutionsand some of us faced discriminiation in our lives. We want to stand together for our rights and contribute to our communities. We want to help improve services and give people more choices.

We Believe...

All people should be able to speak up for themselves and make their own decisions and mistakes.

All people should be able to choose their own lifestyle and have control over their own things.

All people should work together as a team.

All people should have the right to choose an action and accept the consequences.
