Celebrating Abilities, Growing Together.
Join our Pierce County community to create inclusive programs for individuals with special needs supporting education, employment, life skills, and social growth.
Empower and Unite
The Opportunity Circle, sponsored by 321 Buddy, believes that every person holds the power to grow, to dream, and to transform their future — but it all begins with a safe space where they feel seen, supported,
and empowered. The Opportunity Circle is that space. It’s where education ignites potential, employment opens doors, life skills build confidence, and human connection fuels purpose. Here, dreams aren’t just spoken — they’re nurtured, shared, and brought to life, together.
