Pacific NW Employment Forum 2025

Oregon and Washington APSE chapters (along with other sponsors in the Pacific NW) bring you the 11th Annual Pacific NW Employment Forum. Our theme this year, Rooted in Resilience: Nurturing Growth through Supported Employment, guides our learning together and sharing best practices to assure employment is a reality for all. If you cannot travel, join us virtually. Hope to see you in Portland!

We are thrilled for you to join us for the 11th Pacific NW Employment Forum. The Office of Development Disability Services (ODDS) is hosting an Employment First Summit just following PNWEF, and Oregon APSE is assisting with the event registration. Come to these events to spend mid-week learning and growing with self-advocates, employment professional, and others in Portland, assuring Employment First's philosophy continues to evolve as focusing on a person's skills and strength moves employment for all forward.


Registration for APSE members is $265; others $325; and for both events $330 or $4390. **Please note: This is the registration link for ODDS Employment First Summit, too. The Oregon Employment First Summit is October 1-2, 2025. Once you register, your confirmation email has a link to add to your calendar.**


Virtual registration is $110 for an individual and $315 for an organization.
