Our mission is supporting children and adults with disabilities, their families and communities in creating opportunities together.

Creating Opportunities is a community organization developed for the purpose of supporting families of children with developmental disabilities who live in Polk, Yamhill and Marion Counties.

Creating Opportunities encourages families to maintain a positive outlook while acquiring knowledge and taking action to create and expand resources in their local community.

Equipped with information and support received through the Creating Opportunities Family Network, families will direct the planning and implementation of their child’s services, and champion the empowerment of other families.

Creating Opportunities promotes active participation of individuals who have a developmental disability in all facets of life at home, at work and in the community. We join families in celebrating their strengths, unique gifts and personal achievements.
