Awards

In December 2002, Options received another award. Oregon Department of Human Services Office of Mental Health and Addiction Services gave Options the Housing Partnership Award. The following is quoted from the presentation:

"...Options has been extremely creative and successful in combining a wide range of financial resources to create high quality residential opportunities that take into account consumer preferences. Before it was fashionable to proactively seek input from prospective residents when developing housing, they pioneered techniques which incorporated future residents ideas into the design of the housing."
