Creating sustainable employment for QRFs
located in eastern Oregon is challenging. Rural
areas do not have the customer base to offer the
variety or quantity of work usually available in
urban regions. QRFs located in eastern Oregon
have been able to increase work opportunities
by offering products rather than concentrating
exclusively on trade services. Products can be
assembled in-house and shipped to customers
located anywhere in Oregon.
Three QRFs east of the Cascade Mountains
manufacture products to increase the variety
of employment opportunities for their clients.
Step Forward Activities, located in Baker City,
produces a variety of plastic garbage bags and
remanufactured toner cartridges for public
agencies. New Day Enterprises, located in
LaGrande, manufactures gym shorts for Oregon’s
Department of Corrections. Opportunity
Foundation of Central Oregon, located in
Redmond, produces wood survey products for
public agencies.
Collectively, these three QRFs employ more than
300 people with disabilities in rural Oregon.
Their QRF status has given them an exclusive
market for their products, enabling increased
earnings by people with disabilities.
