A visit to Oregon Museum of Science and Industry (OMSI) turned into a day full of discovery, curiosity, and new experiences for one person supported by Kerr.

From exploring exhibits to taking in everything the museum had to offer, the day was all about following personal interests and enjoying the chance to learn something new.

Growth happens when people have access to new experiences, professional networks, and opportunities to learn.

Recently, a group from Kerr’s Inclusive Day Services Upskills program at our Powell location attended the Northwest Facilities Expo, connecting with professionals in facilities engineering, maintenance, and green building from across the region.

The expo gave participants a chance to explore industry trends and meet professionals across multiple sectors.

Ever wonder how small, behind-the-scenes moments help keep a community fed?

A group from Kerr’s Inclusive Day Services recently volunteered at the Sunshine Division, helping organize and stock the cooler with donated food for community members.

They unloaded pallets of yogurt, stocked shelves with donated meat and pancakes, organized the cooler, and broke down boxes for recycling when the work was done.
