Mission Statement
The Arc Portland Metro is an equity justice organization focused on creating community and opportunity for people experiencing intellectual and developmental disabilities. Our vision is an equitable and inclusive place to call home for all Oregonians, and our mission is to overcome the barriers to optimal living created by ableist societal structures and to create individually responsive fulfillment and belonging in all aspects of life.
About This Cause
We work throughout the Portland Metro areas including Multnomah, Clackamas, and Washington counties to eliminate systemic inequities that lead to disparate outcomes in belonging and community, health and wellness, educational opportunities, and economic security. We provide culturally and individually responsive services designed to improve all aspects of life for adults experiencing intellectual / developmental disabilities. We currently offer a variety of initiatives to respond to the priorities outlined by the community members we serve, including lifestyle enrichment programming, direct support services, and connection to resources. As we work to provide a complete spectrum of care for the whole individual, key focuses include: - Direct Support Services - Connection to Resources - Community Building - Enrichment Programming - Integrated Workforce Development - Advocacy
