Special Olympics Oregon brings year-round sports training and competition to children and adults with intellectual disabilities.
Through the challenges and triumphs of real competition, we serve Oregon’s largest disability population by celebrating their abilities. And by competing, athletes experience life-changing opportunities to improve physical fitness, learn everyday life skills and connect more closely to their communities.
Teens and adults who experience disabilities often struggle finding a social space where they are valued and can build friendships. Activities and events not only provide opportunities for social needs to be met but they also increase mental and emotional well being in participants.

We are a self-advocacy organization fighting for the rights of people with intellectual and developmental disabilities. As a 501(c)(3) organization operated by people with disabilities, we organize and advocate for full inclusion in society. We work to reverse the assumption that people with disabilities deserve only limited roles in society.
We represent self-advocates in Oregon. We work to educate others that people with disabilities can contribute to society in meaningful ways. We have a voice in legislation affecting people with disabilities, and appeal to our lawmakers on a local, state, and national level.
On behalf of all people with disabilities, we stand for equal employment opportunities, living wages, and affordable healthcare.
