Our Campaigns

It has been more than 50 years since the roots of Vocational Visions were planted in Mission Viejo. What started as a partnership with the Saddleback Valley Unified School District with 30 persons served has blossomed into seven programs serving a diverse group of over 400 adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities.

Recognized by our families as a place of hope and progress, Vocational Visions continues to provide meaningful programs, immersive volunteer opportunities, and innovative services that support adults with a wide range of ages and abilities. Through our programs, the people we serve have had a tremendous positive impact throughout Orange County.

Our Supported Employment Program serves over 100 people working in paid jobs in their communities. This past year alone, persons served worked over 70,000 hours, achieving freedom, independence, skill development, confidence, and that intangible feeling of accomplishment. Persons served in our day programs completed over 3,300 volunteer hours of volunteer work in the past year, benefitting 21 community organizations, gaining skills and giving back to their communities. From sorting out food to delivering meals to seniors, their contributions demonstrate the true spirit of belonging and purpose.

We invite you to partner with us and be an integral part of the Vocational Visions journey. Your support helps the individuals we serve access enhanced community-based programs, employment opportunities, social recreation, and unique specialized services for individuals with medical needs.

Every dollar given to our “Open Doors” campaign helps create safe, supportive spaces where the individuals we serve can connect and thrive. Your contributions directly support our programs – helping us expand our capacity, and deliver high-quality programming. That means more vehicles for community outings, more engaging materials for skill-building, and more staff to support their well-being. Your investments will open doors to learning, community, and a deeper sense of belonging. Gifts can be made online at vocationalvisions.org or by mail.

Thank you for your past support and believing in our mission to help strengthen our growing community.
