We are grateful!

Dear Heroes of Victory -

heroesSaturday night marked another first in Victory’s history! Together, we raised over $900,000! Thea and I are still a bit in shock on this soggy Halloween morning. Thank you for the phenomenal show of support, encouragement, and generosity. We are humbled by this community and your dedication to all things Victory. You make an incredible difference to Victory’s students, their families, and out into the world beyond. Our hearts are overflowing with gratitude and love for you all. Thank you!

We also want to extend a HUGE thank you to our hard-working auction committee, volunteers, and Victory staff, led by our fearless and creative event planner, Carolyn Stanley. This was our first-ever Big Tent Event, and Carolyn accepted the challenge and orchestrated yet another memorable and incredibly fun celebration. This is Carolyn’s last year in this role, and she has left big shoes to fill!

Thank you, Victory Heroes.

With Love, Hope, and Gratitude Always,
Tricia and Thea

Share the Love 2021

share the loveSince 2018, Wilsonville Subaru has actively engaged with Victory students and acted as an invaluable Work Experience Partner. The Wilsonville Subaru Team offers Work Experience students varied internships and learning opportunities—including car detailing, sales, and mechanics. Thank you to Wilsonville Subaru for providing these incredible opportunities to practice job skills, to explore different employment scenarios, and to prepare for adulthood.

Victory is deeply grateful to Wilsonville Subaru for recognizing the mutual benefits of this collaborative relationship and for nurturing and supporting Victory’s Work Experience students. In addition, we are thankful to be selected as a 2022-2023 Share the Love Recipient!

Share the Love 2020

share the loveAs part of its program for teens, Victory provides work experience opportunities for students at local businesses, where they learn invaluable job skills and develop their own work preferences. Victory began its partnership with Wilsonville Subaru in April 2018, and since that time, Wilsonville Subaru has embraced Victory’s kids and welcomed them into their business. At Wilsonville Subaru, the students are exposed to all aspects of vehicle production, mechanics, maintenance, care, storage, and sales. Students may work "on the floor", in the warehouse, or in the shop alongside Subaru employees. Students participate in cleaning, moving tires, breaking down boxes, taking and restocking inventory, and scanning in items. Additionally, students have the opportunity to learn through observation in the shop, assisting mechanics as needed.

The incredible staff at Wilsonville Subaru demonstrate on-going compassion and commitment to Victory and the participating work experience students. This year, their support extended into the 2019/2020 Share the Love Event. Victory is humbled by Wilsonville Subaru’s extraordinary efforts on our behalf, as Share the Love raised over $40,000 to support Victory’s specialized programs for children, teens, and young adults affected by Autism. During this time of uncertainty and unknowns, these funds play a critical part in keeping Victory healthy and moving forward. Thank you Wilsonville Subaru!

Victory is incredibly grateful to have been a Share the Love recipient in 2020/2021!

Snapshots of Victory

We are grateful for your generosity and support! We had the privilege of celebrating Victory Academy with over 400 families and friends at Victory’s Annual Auction, Snapshots of Victory. We are incredibly grateful to our amazing community! You made the evening a huge success, raising a record-breaking $610,000 to help fund Victory’s specialized programs and therapies for children, teens, and young adults affected by Autism. Read more here!

Sponsors, Supporters, and Partners

Victory is grateful to all of our generous partners. Your support provides us the opportunity to improve and enrich the lives of children, teens, and young adults affected by Autism.

Community Partners

Community Based Instruction (CBI) is an integral part of Victory’s curriculum and programs. All students participate in weekly or twice-weekly CBI, allowing them to practice and generalize academic and social skills learned in the classroom. For example, during CBI, some of Victory’s elementary-aged students practice staying with the group, finding items in a store, and “testing” their social skills (such as speaking to a cashier). Others learn how to cross the street safely, read prices, identify different brands of products, and locate items in a store. In addition, during CBI, students work on a variety of life skills, including reading maps, balancing a budget, and communicating with store employees and other community members.

In the Work Experience (WE) Program, students gain foundational employment skills through multiple internships. Specifically, students participate in varied job opportunities and receive direct instruction in job-specific tasks. These placements result in both student identified job preferences and transferable job skills.

Victory’s WE Program is designed to prepare students for life after Victory. The Victory Team takes into consideration an individual student’s gifts and challenges, while explicitly teaching skills to ensure optimal outcomes.

Since January 2016, Victory's WE Program has provided transition students a total of 120+ vocational training rotations, lasting from three to eight months at a time. Currently, Victory has partnered with a total of 32 employers in the greater Portland metropolitan area. Some students have even been hired at our community partners for employment after their internships.

Community-Based Instruction (CBI) and Work Experience (WE) are core tenets of the Victory experience. Designed to foster independence, communication, and life skills, CBI and WE take Victory students out into our communities every week. If you are interested in becoming a community partner, please contact Work Experience Coordinator, Donna Brague (This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.) or click here to read the Work Experience Program's FAQ.
