Vocational Rehabilitation (VR) assists people with any disability to find jobs matching their skills, abilities, and interest.

They provide assistance with career explorations, job development, and some job coaching and accommodations development in the first three months of a new job.

We are deeply grateful to our partners at the JTMF Foundation, the Oregon Community Foundation, and the Roundhouse Foundation.

Your generous support helps Central Oregon Disability Support Network continue to show up for children and families navigating disability in rural communities.

Because of you, families feel seen, supported, and connected.
From all of us at CODSN — thank you for believing in our work and our community.

Our Friends at Oregon Self-Advocacy Coalition shared this on their page. We want to make sure you have seen this critical information about SNAP.

There are new work requirements for SNAP benefits starting 12/01/2025. If you receive I/DD services/ disability benefits, you DO NOT need to meet the new work requirements to keep receiving SNAP benefits (this means you are exempt).

You need to call or email ODHS now to tell them that you are exempt to keep your
SNAP benefits the same.

Call them at 833-947-1694 or email them at snap.abawdteam@odhsoha.oregon.gov and tell them your contact information and the exemption you are eligible for, “I receive disability benefits”.

You can ask people in your life to support you with calling and emailing ODHS.
