Tomorrow is Giving Tuesday! Please consider donating to Opportunity for Independence to ensure the support we provide to our participants with intellectual and developmental disabilities. We are truly grateful!
Our programs include Supported Living Services, helping individuals to live in their own home with the rights, safety, choices, power, and control that this implies; and Supported Training for Employment Placement (STEP Day Program): which offers community-based vocational training for adults with developmental and intellectual disabilities with the goal of developing social and vocational skills and facilitating greater community integration through employment.
In 2015 OFI transformed its STEP Day Program into a state of the art job readiness and employment first program with the goal of providing competitive employment opportunities in non-sheltered, non-enclave settings for all of their program participants.

OFI's Supported Living Services (SLS) was created in 2003 when we saw the need and desire of many participants to live independently. Individuals in our SLS program may come from their parents' homes, group homes and other facilities.

Supported Training for Employment Placement serves individuals 22 and older who have developmental and/or intellectual disabilities and who need behavioral support to be successful. Today we are proud to be actively implementing the Employment First Initiative.
More InfoFor over twenty years, OFI has been recognized as a premiere provider of services to adults with developmental and intellectual disabilities who need behavioral support. Our relatively small size and low client to staff ratio has made it possible for us to address individual needs and tailor services to our constituents.
