We never take the work we do for granted. We know when all people have the chance to be accepted and included, our world is better. The year ahead will bring unique challenges to organizations like Opportunity Partners. With increasing requirements to expand community integration and independent employment, we acknowledge our services may not look the same in the future. But we vow to forge ahead, leading change in our sector by reinventing our services as needed so we can continue to provide people opportunities to lead the happy, dignified and rewarding lives that everyone deserves. With your support, we will "Redefine Ability." Opening Minds. Changing Lives. Together.

We're excited to share that Opportunity Partners is participating in a state-certified Health Information Exchange (HIE), called Simply Connect. The decision to connect our information systems to an HIE was driven by our desire to provide the best care possible and comply with goals laid out by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services.

The HIE allows care providers like Opportunity Partners to securely share critical information on people we serve related to their medical, behavior and overall well-being. This aligns well with our mission to advance the quality of life of individuals overall. The HIE is a government-sponsored initiative in collaboration with sector partners in the Altair Accountable Care Organization (ACO) to which we belong. More information to come!
