Sammy's Place - learn, grow and thrive

Sammy's Place - learn, grow and thrive Sammy's Place is a 501 (c) (3) on the North Coast of Oregon committed to community living for all. Great things start with big dreams. We are driven.

Our dream is to create community living, working, and respite opportunities, inspired by nature, with people who experience disabilities and those who share their journey. This dream started many years ago with the desire to provide respite for the family and caregivers of people with disability. After all, care giving is only sustainable if self-care is part of the process. The mission grew and expanded when more people joined the effort. Our journey is both personal and universal. We are not only a parent, a caregiver and an aunt of a person with a disability, we are a team that cares about making sure everyone has a choice. We passionately share the vision of building nature-inspired housing where everyone is supported to learn, grow, and thrive. We are committed. We need your support. People who experience disabilities have the same goals as you and I. They want relationships, access to community, good jobs, and affordable housing of their choice. Often, on the Coast of Oregon access to these can be limited. At Sammy’s Place and the Oregon COAAST Network we are working to create more equitable options.

🕰️ Daylight Saving Time Ends This Weekend! 🌅

This Sunday, don’t forget to “fall back” and set your clocks one hour earlier! 🍂

The time change can take a little adjusting—especially to new routines or changes in daylight. Be gentle with yourself and those around you as our days get shorter and evenings come sooner. 💛

At Sammy’s Place, we know that community support and small adjustments can make transitions a little easier for everyone. You’ve got this! 💪✨

Today, we honor and remember the loved ones who have passed—but who remain forever in our hearts. 💛

Día de los Mu***os is a time to celebrate life, connection, and the memories that continue to shape our communities. At Sammy’s Place, we believe that everyone deserves a place where they belong—where stories are shared, traditions are honored, and love continues to grow. 🌼

Whether you build an ofrenda, light a candle, or simply take a quiet moment of reflection, we invite you to join us in remembering those who came before us and the joy they brought into our lives.

🐾 Happy National Cat Day! 🐾

At Sammy’s Place, we know that our furry friends make life brighter. Cats bring comfort, companionship, and a little bit of calm when we need it most. Whether your cat loves to cuddle, chase toys, or nap in a sunny spot—they remind us how important it is to feel safe, loved, and included. 💛

Today we’re celebrating all the ways our feline friends help us feel connected and cared for. 🐱
