Exploring new horizons, rain or shine! 🌦️ A group of our clients and providers recently went on a camping trip to Valley of The Rogue State Park. It was a true testament to the power of friendship, resilience, and joy. From cozy yurt games to serene rain meditation sessions, every moment was a reminder of the beautiful connections we build together. 🛖🌳

Shoutout to our staff member Shai for hosting this fun pizza- making party! This group got together to make homemade pizzas, play pool, and socialize, all while learning cooking and kitchen safety skills.

Memorable moments in Mosier! Our incredible agency trip featured fun-filled activities like monopoly, charades, karaoke, and playing in the snow!

Amidst the laughter, we focused on important skills—safe cooking, fire safety, teamwork— and set empowering intentions for the new year.

Building connections, creating memories, and fostering growth together! ☀️

This past weekend we camped and whitewater rafted in Maupin! It was a trip we will never forget. We made so many memories road-tripping, building trust on our raft adventure, and cooking amazing meals together. We can’t wait to go back next year!☀️🏕️

This summer has been jam packed with all kinds of fun activities. From birthday parties to archery to goat and kitten farms, there hasn’t been a dull moment! 🐐 🎉 🏹

We had a blast exploring the Enchanted Forest, hanging with the animals at the Airbnb, and playing games together.🐓🌳

We are so proud of our client Brian for all of his bowling and archery accomplishments! Brian and his staff member, Melia, were recently featured on G4 Archery’s website AND he hit a new record of 182 in bowling! Awesome job, Brian! 🏹 🎳

A group of clients and providers went camping at Oxbow Regional Park! We enjoyed sitting by the campfire, making s’mores, going to the beach, playing games, hiking, even looking through a telescope! Camping is always a great way to work on life skills and make new friends!

Thank you to everyone who came out for the annual Blue Lake BBQ earlier this month! We had delicious food, made snow cones, played kickball, tie dyed, and spent quality time with friends! We can’t wait until next year’s BBQ! 🍔🍦⚽️🌞

One of our client/provider teams visited the Painted Hills over the weekend! ⛰️Traveling is full of awesome opportunities to work on life skills. They had a blast hiking to see all of the beautiful colors of the hills, learning about the amazing fossils of the area, and enjoying some relaxation time! ☀️

We had the BEST time on the coast last weekend! We saw the ocean, sang karaoke, had fun at Chinook Winds casino, and saw all the sites in Lincoln City!

Happy World Down Syndrome Day!

World Down Syndrome Day is marked each year on March 21. The 21st day of March was selected to signify the uniqueness of the triplication of the 21st chromosome which causes Down syndrome.
Every year on March 21, World Down Syndrome Day is observed to create awareness about Down syndrome.

In 2013, the theme of Wearing Odd Socks was initiated to raise awareness. Over time it has also been promoted as Lots of Socks. The idea was created because chromosomes are shaped “like socks” and people with Down syndrome have an extra chromosome.

We had a fabulous time volunteering with Northwest Children’s outreach sorting and packing clothing for kids in our community. It was a great way to bond as a group and give back to the community!

We are SO excited for our holiday party next month! It will be an afternoon of fun holiday activities, yummy food, and celebrating the holiday season! ⛄🎄Stay tuned for pictures from this event and our other exciting winter activities!

We had a SO much fun at our end of summer event last weekend in Oceanside!!! We hung out at the beach, went to the Tillamook Cheese Factory, learned about healthy relationships, and so much more ☀️🌊

Join us on October 21st for Believe and Achieve's fall group event! We'll be heading to Sauvie Island for a corn maize, animal barn, hayrides, and decorating pumpkins! See you there! 🌽🍁🎃

We had so much fun at the Rice Museum of Rocks and Minerals earlier this week! This is a GREAT (low-cost!!) place to go for some fun hands-on learning 🪨 We even got to pick out our own rocks to take home with us!
