New Horizons Corporation is a non-profit organization that empowers adults with developmental disabilities to live and work in our community
In our production center up to a hundred service recipients perform contract work every week day. We train them to perform these tasks at their individual skill levels and they earn paychecks for the work they do. A full staff supports their needs.
In a substantial way the production center is the focus of their lives. Many prefer to be here with their friends and our staff than anywhere else.
Our service recipients also contribute to our community outside the production center. About 75 service recipients travel in work teams for jobs in cleaning, landscaping and mechanical assembly. The pride they share in the tasks they perform is the basis for a greater sense of self-worth.
New Horizons has four homes that house eight service recipients apiece. Here residents gain, retain and improve the skills they need to live in the community.
An expanding part of our mission is supported living, a program in which service recipients live with personal assistants in their own homes, With careful guidance, they acquire the every day personal and social skills they need to live in a more independent setting.
We are proud of what we do and the people whom we serve, and we invite you to visit our facilities. We offer on site tours at 11 am each Tuesday. We ask groups to call ahead to let us know how many will be coming. Our number is 615-360-8595. We look forward to seeing you.
