To our friends, colleagues, and visitors:

We have made the difficult decision to retire this agency after seven difficult, but wonderful, years. This decision was made harder by the increasing number of people who should qualify for disability benefits and the increasing barriers being placed between these people and a favorable determination.

Throughout these seven years, it has been an honor to be chosen as our clients' representative and to work with so many wonderful agencies in Multnomah County and throughout the United States.

Once we determine our new level of sustainable effort, we look forward to rejoining you in service to the community addressing the continuing issues of homelessness and disability. Until that day, be well and thank you for all of the work that you do.
