About this Cause

Opportunity Knocks is dedicated to enriching life and community. We exist to support people with intellectual and developmental disabilities as they live, work, learn, grow and connect within their community. We view individuals living with intellectual and developmental differences as Warriors, champions of their own journeys. Rather than seeing ourselves as the providers of enrichment and empowerment, we see our role as partners in co-creating opportunities. We focus on abilities, not disabilities and we welcome every body to join us in the OK Mission where we form a collaboration, built WITH, NOT FOR the Warriors, families and communities. We believe in a dynamic, person-centered, and community-based approach to programming that engages the voice of all Warriors thrives on interdependent connections, encourages exploration, centers on holistic wellness, and fostering healthy relationships.
