The Dignity of Risk

Produced by Outsight Studio thanks to a grant from Travel Oregon.

There is power in taking a risk. When we step out of our comfort zones to try new and challenging things growth happens, sometimes beyond our wildest dreams. With the help of our caring and capable community, we at OAS are working to empower people with disabilities find the confidence, self-esteem, and independence that comes from taking these risks.

We hope you enjoy our new OAS Story, “The Dignity of Risk,” and if you are compelled to better yourself or others from this piece, we hope you’ll consider making a donation to OAS to open up more opportunities for individuals like Ashley, Dustan, and the hundreds of others we serve each year.

We cannot thank our “subjects” Ashley, Leah, Dianna, Gregg, and Dustan enough for taking the risk of being featured in this film. The courage to share such personal stories speaks to the strength and confidence of these individuals and families. And, an immense thank you to Devon, Chris, Bradley and the entire team at Outsight for creating such a beautiful piece. None of which would’ve been possible without the support from our friends at Travel Oregon.
