Priestap Project
November 16-21 in SE Portland

Our primary client was a 44-year-old man who is severely disabled. He has cerebral palsy, is confined to a wheelchair, and needs assistance with all his activities of daily living. His parents are deceased, and his brother and sister are his caretakers. He lives primarily with his sister, Ms. Priestap. The work we did primarily addresses his care. A significant amount of vetting work was done for this application, due to the nature of the care situation. We were very excited to do the project, and had an absolutely fantastic experience, with a strong crew of volunteers, making a real difference for this family's quality of life!
