Disability Support Agency Serving Medford and Jackson County

Medford is the heart of Southern Oregon's Rogue Valley — a community of nearly 89,000 people nestled between the Cascade Range and the Siskiyou Mountains. For families here navigating intellectual and developmental disability services, finding a provider who understands this region and shows up consistently can make all the difference. North Star Oregon delivers person-centered in-home attendant care throughout Jackson County, and with our office in neighboring Grants Pass, we have a strong local presence in Southern Oregon.

Services in Medford are coordinated through the Jackson County Developmental Disability Services program — the local Community Developmental Disabilities Program (CDDP) — located at 140 S Holly St., Medford, OR 97501. You can reach their office at 541-774-8205. Whether you're already connected with a service coordinator there or just beginning the eligibility process, North Star Oregon can work alongside your team to build a support plan tailored to your goals.

Jackson County is home to a strong network of disability organizations, and we're proud to be part of that ecosystem. From The Arc Jackson County to HASL Center for Independent Living in nearby Grants Pass, the resources here are real — and so is our commitment to serving the people who rely on them.

Southern Oregon Roots, Statewide Experience

North Star Oregon isn't parachuting into the Rogue Valley from somewhere far away. Our Grants Pass office — just 30 miles northwest of Medford in neighboring Josephine County — gives us a genuine Southern Oregon presence. That proximity means faster response times, local familiarity, and a team that understands the rhythms of life in Jackson County. Combined with our statewide infrastructure, families in Medford get the best of both worlds: local knowledge backed by organizational depth. Our services are coordinated through Oregon's K-Plan and the Office of Developmental Disabilities Services (ODDS). If you're already working with Jackson County Developmental Disability Services, we can plug into your existing care team. If you're new to the system, we'll walk you through it — step by step, without jargon.

A Provider That Stays

Consistency matters more than anything in disability support. Every North Star Oregon support worker is trained, background-checked, and matched to the individual they serve. We prioritize long-term relationships over short-term coverage, because people deserve to be supported by someone they know and trust — not a different face every week.

In-Home Attendant Care Services in Medford, Oregon

In-home attendant care is our core service in Medford. For individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities living in Jackson County, attendant care means one-on-one support in the comfort of home — helping with daily living tasks, personal care, skill building, and community access. Whether it's assistance getting to an appointment at Asante Rogue Regional Medical Center, support preparing meals, or help building the skills to navigate downtown Medford or Bear Creek Park more independently, our team is here for the long term.

The Rogue Valley's warm, dry climate and tight-knit neighborhoods make it a wonderful place to live — and our job is to help ensure that individuals with disabilities can fully participate in the community they call home. Our attendant care workers come to you, wherever you are in the Medford area, so you don't need to travel to a facility to receive support.
