QWO
Services
QWO currently provides four restorative services:
Respite Care by Martha's Place, Discovery Day Program, Treasure Nights, and the Family Support
Network.
Respite Care by Martha's Place
Martha’s
Place, a licensed adult foster care home, provides much needed overnight
respite care to individuals with DD, providing overnight
care for up to 5 individuals at a time.
QWO
is the first organization in Oregon to open a home in the Portland area that
provides affordable respite care for individuals with DD, ages 12 and older.

Discovery Day Program
This
uplifting day program provides opportunities for individuals
with DD to become engaged in the community through
service-oriented involvement, to learn valuable life skills,
and to have a positive alternative to the services currently
available. More.
Treasure Nights
A "Treasure Night" is a designated
day of the month for each participating
church when QWO staff, volunteers and
"Treasures" (individuals with DD) get together to sing songs,
play games, study a bible lesson, make
crafts and eat yummy treats. It is a great
opportunity for Treasures to interact with others
with similar disabilities while building great friendships.

Family Support Network
-
QWO helps parents and caregivers by
strengthening their family unit. Services include help with the everyday
tasks that a caregiver cannot always attend to, resource information, and
life counseling. More...
It is a primary goal of QWO to provide its
services without financial obligations to the recipients, except
for respite care.
