Incight for Self Empowerment

Portland, OR, US • 20 - 49 Employees
City Government/Municipal Government

Incight is a 501(c) 3 non-profit that supports and empowers key life aspects of education, employment, and independence. More potential resides within the disability community than has been historically realized – and that much of that potential is unfairly locked up due to stigma, resulting in low expectation. Incight has three distinct departments that provide programs and resources to help empower people realize their potential and encourage the community at large to consider greater inclusion. We aim to create a culture of inclusion by providing services that empower those experiencing disability in our community. Our resources include training's to create workplaces free of stigma surrounding disability, support systems for students to access all necessary resources to be successful, recreational opportunities for athletes of all abilities, and a safe forum for people to join the conversation. Our services directly impact hundreds of students, job-seekers, athletes, families, educators, non-profits, and business professionals as well as many community partners, corporations, and schools.
