Partnership Resources, Inc. provides opportunities for adults with disabilities to gain respect and have a valued role in community life.

Mission

Before 1958, day programs for adults with mental and physical challenges did not exist. In 1960, with only 14 clients, Partnership Resources, Inc. was formed to help fill this gap. Today, we serve over 250 individuals in both employment and cultural enrichment programs. PRI's foundation is job placement. We have a diversified group of community partners that provide employment to our clients. We also have many partnerships with organizations related to our cultural enrichment program. At PRI, we maintain the philosophy that every life matters and everyone has something to contribute. We are dedicated to providing individuals with developmental disabilities the supports and opportunities that they need to help them work and develop.

Programs

We serve people through two major components; job placement (supported employment) and cultural enrichment. For those people interested in employment, we assist in job placement and training while providing ongoing job coaching. In our cultural enrichment program, we offer a wide variety of activities geared to culturally enrich people's lives. These activities include sessions on art, outings to music and theatre events and computer training.

    PRI is indeed the most wonderful thing for my son Chris - from the friends he has made, to the employment opportunities given to him - this is an integral part of his life. As a volunteer - I love teaching yoga to the clients. They are an awesome group of students. I just can't say enough about this organization!

    PRI has been the best thing that has happened to our son, Wade. He loves everyone there and really enjoys working at Target. We, as a family, feel like part of PRI.

    Where would these incredible adults be without our continuous support?? PRI is an incredible lifeline for families and clients....we cannot say enough about the incredible quality of services offered at PRI and are privileged to be one very small part of such a worthwhile cause.
