QWO currently provides four restorative services: Respite Care by Martha's Place & Selah West, Discovery Day Program, Treasure Nights, and the Family Support Network.
Martha’s Place & Selah West are licensed adult foster care homes, that provide much needed overnight respite care to individuals with developmental disabilities, providing overnight care for up to 5 individuals each at a time. QWO is the first organization in Oregon to open a homes in the Portland area that provides affordable respite care for individuals with DD, ages 18 and older. More
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
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. More
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. Please click here if you are interested in supporting our ministry.
