Welcome to FACT Oregon

Empowering Families - Transforming Disability

FACT Oregon empowers families, youth, and communities to navigate disability systems, advocating together for disability justice and policy change so that people with disabilities have what they need to thrive at home, in school, and in their communities.

We work toward a future in which communities are accessible and inclusive, and where the self-determination of people with disabilities is assured.
