Supporting People with Disabilities Since 1956
The Opportunity Center of Owensboro provides services through the Support for Community Living (SCL) and Michelle P. Waiver (MPW) Medicaid Waiver programs. The SCL waiver program is a home and community-based program funded by the Kentucky Department for Medicaid Services and administered by DDID (Division of Developmental and Intellectual Disabilities). The SCL program was developed to allow a person with developmental disabilities to receive services outside of institutions.
The MPW is part of Kentucky’s 1915(c) HCBS (home and community-based services) Medicaid waiver program. MPW provides assistance to individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities to help them live in the community as independently as possible.
We offer eight goal-driven services that are individualized to each participant. All services focus on strengthening independence, giving support for community access, and developing work and/or life skills.
There are several ways to get involved in the mission of the Opportunity Center. You can donate, volunteer, join our team of staff, help with events – and more! Help us create endless possibilities for people with disabilities.
We know that navigating the system and knowing how to help yourself or your loved one is a challenge. Let us make things easier for you by providing a list of resources to get you started and help you on your journey!
Partners In Possibilities is the Opportunity Center of Owensboro’s annual giving campaign designed to build a stronger, more inclusive community—together. Through this initiative, we invite businesses, organizations, and individuals to become mission-driven partners who help create life-changing opportunities for adults with disabilities. Each contribution directly supports our programs, services, and experiences that empower participants to gain independence, develop work and life skills, and thrive in their daily lives.
When you become a Partner In Possibilities, you’re doing more than making a donation—you’re investing in potential. Your support helps fund everything from vocational training and community outings to art, wellness, and enrichment programs. Every dollar raised goes directly toward making sure the individuals we serve have the tools, confidence, and support they need to live meaningful, fulfilling lives. Our partners are recognized throughout the year and celebrated for the impact they make.
Join us in opening doors to possibility. Whether you’re a local business looking to give back, a family wanting to make a difference, or a community leader seeking meaningful partnership, there’s a place for you in this campaign. Together, we can transform lives and continue building a community where everyone belongs.
