Feedback

Open Doors Organization strives to be a resource “for the people, by the people”. This means that individuals with all disabilities are always invited to the table to speak about the issues that directly impact them. Several members of this company have disabilities themselves. They are firm believers in, “nothing about us, without us.” This company values individuals with disabilities’ voices above all else. Not just one disability, all disabilities. If you have something to say about any of the projects or services being done by this organization or would like to be more involved in ODO, contact us! We would love to hear from you. Let us hear your voice because this organization is for you, and it means nothing without your support.
