What Opportunities for Positive Growth, Inc. does

Opportunities for Positive Growth, Inc. (OPG) is a Fishers, Indiana-headquartered human services agency that delivers support and therapeutic services to individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD). Founded in 1998, the company operates as an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP) and describes itself as one of the largest employee-owned human services agencies in Indiana. Its service portfolio comprises six core offerings: Daily Living Services, Behavior Support Services, Employment Services, Music Therapy, Occupational Therapy, and Recreational Therapy. These services are delivered by trained Direct Support Professionals and licensed therapists in individuals' homes and community settings across central and northern Indiana, with branch offices in Fishers, Lafayette, and Kokomo serving the Indianapolis metro, Tippecanoe County, and Howard County respectively, alongside coverage of Marion and Fort Wayne.

OPG is funded primarily through the Indiana Bureau of Developmental Disability Services (BDDS) home- and community-based services (HCBS) waiver programs. Pricing is not publicly disclosed because reimbursement is set by state waiver rates. The customer base spans three segments: (1) individuals with IDD as end beneficiaries, (2) their families and guardians as referral and support partners, and (3) BDDS case managers and the state agency as funders and quality oversight bodies. The go-to-market is community-referral led, with case managers, BDDS, and advocacy organizations (including The Arc) driving inbound interest; recruitment is conducted through local job postings and educational institution partnerships that feed the AMTA-accredited music therapy internship pipeline.

The company's competitive positioning rests on regulatory accreditation (Person-Centered Excellence Accreditation with Distinction from the Council on Quality and Leadership for four consecutive years; state-approved Indiana accreditation; AMTA accreditation), ESOP-driven culture that has earned repeated Top Workplace honors (USA Today Top Workplaces 2026, Top Workplaces Central Indiana 2024, #1 Meaningful Employer 2023, ESOP Company of the Year Indiana Chapter 2015), and a 'relationships-first, you-driven' service philosophy codified across a Human Rights Committee and quality assurance infrastructure. Technology footprint is minimal: a WordPress-based website, a Paylocity recruiting portal, and email-based stakeholder communication; no APIs, integrations, or data platform are disclosed. The company is private, has no parent, no subsidiaries, no disclosed funding rounds, and no M&A history.

Direct peers

• Easterseals: National nonprofit providing disability and IDD services across many states, including community-based supports, employment services, and therapy. Comparable to OPG in mission, service mix, and reliance on community referrals.
• BrightSpring Health Services: Public home and community-based services company providing IDD support, behavioral health, and pharmacy services across dozens of states. Directly comparable to OPG as a Medicaid-funded HCBS provider serving the IDD population, but at vastly greater scale.
• Sevita Health: One of the largest U.S. providers of home and community-based services for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities, autism, and brain injuries. Operates the same waiver-funded model OPG runs and competes for the same case-manager referrals in multiple states.
• RHA Health Services: Multi-state provider of behavioral health and IDD services, including home- and community-based waiver programs. Closely comparable to OPG in service mix (daily living, behavior support, employment) and government-funded delivery model.
• Help at Home: Personal care and home and community-based services provider focused on Medicaid waiver populations including individuals with IDD. Overlaps with OPG's Daily Living Services and DSP-driven delivery model.

Others

• Council on Quality and Leadership (CQL): Accrediting body that awards OPG its Person-Centered Excellence Accreditation with Distinction. Functions as an ecosystem enabler and quality gatekeeper for IDD providers rather than a service competitor.
• The Arc of the United States: National advocacy organization for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities, listed as a 'Proud Supporter' of OPG. Not a direct service competitor, but a key ecosystem partner shaping IDD policy and family referral flows.

Regional players

• Tangram: Indiana-based disability services provider delivering community-based, residential, and employment supports for individuals with IDD and behavioral health needs. Most direct Indiana competitor to OPG in waiver-funded HCBS.
• Anew Behavioral Health: Indiana-based behavioral health and IDD services provider. Comparable to OPG in target population and government-funded delivery, with overlap in behavior support and community-based programming.
• Sycamore Services: Indiana-based human services agency providing community-based programs for individuals with developmental disabilities, including case management, behavior support, and employment services. Direct Indiana competitor overlapping OPG's service mix and geography.
