Friendship Community began its faith-based ministry in 1969 when The Eastern Board of Missions and Charities began researching ways that parents of children with disabilities could receive the support and resources needed. From then on, a committee of six men was formed and for the next three years, they gathered information from families of those with Disabilities in hopes of finding more sufficient ways to support them. It was from their findings, they concluded that a residential program was needed for these Individuals. Once the project was completed in 1972, the East Oregon Road home opened as Friendship Community’s first residential home serving twelve Individuals and two respite beds. Since that moment, Friendship Community has expanded to 24 residential homes and various programs that allow individuals to thrive in their talents and skills.
If you are looking for an opportunity to not only make a difference in the lives of our Individuals but also a difference in your own life, come join our Friendship team.
