Disability Rights Oregon (DRO) helps empower individuals who are having difficulty getting or keeping a job because of disability-related barriers. They can provide assistance to people requiring reasonable accommodations to maintain their jobs. For Oregonians with disabilities who receive Supplemental Security Income (SSI) or Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) and have a disability-related employment issue, DRO assists in eliminating the barriers SSI/SSDI recipients face in their efforts to begin work or return to work.
DRO can help recipients of SSI or SSDI with services, benefits or accommodations directly leading to work, including: reasonable accommodation requests for the workplace; reasonable accommodation requests for college, training programs and licenses that lead to work; and other disability-based legal issues that are barriers to employment, such as transportation. https://www.droregon.org/employment
