Closing a Meaningful Chapter: The OTAC Legacy and Our Path Forward

Since 1984, OTAC, originally Oregon Technical Assistance Corporation, has played an instrumental role in advancing person-centered approaches to services and supports for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) in Oregon.
