Supporting adults with disabilities to enjoy active and fulfilling lives.

This year, a new partnership between Day Services and Retail has Goodwill Store & Donation Center leaders “Inspired by People.” Several store leaders had the opportunity to spend a day working with our Clubhouse and Day Services participants at the Goodwill Center for Work and Training – Southwest Campus.
