Goodwill Industries of Fayette County
Founded in 1969, Goodwill of Fayette County serves a wide range of clients, primarily adults who have visual and hearing impairments, physical and emotional disabilities, educational and cultural disabilities such as cerebral palsy, epilepsy, and mental retardation, as well as individuals with social and economic disadvantages, such as welfare-to-work candidates.
Programs
Goodwill Fayette offers vocational training programs and several types of employment opportunities, ranging from sheltered workshops employing people with substantial limitations to transitional or support employment, and competitive jobs for people with less severe disabilities. With guidance and support from its volunteer Board of Directors, Goodwill Fayette works closely with rehabilitation agencies and job placement offices to coordinate and implement its training and employment services.
Intensive Vocational Rehabilitative Program - Serves individuals with drug and alcohol problems by providing counseling and work experience, along with outpatient education, therapy and placement services.
Union Station Clubhouse - Launched in January 2002, this is a new rehabilitation program designed specifically for individuals who have mental illness, which impacts their social and vocational lifestyles. It is both an approach to psychosocial rehab and a physical place represented by the word "clubhouse." Individuals, who are called "members" rather than "patients" or "clients," are welcome to join at no cost and to participate by developing their own activities.
Businesses
Goodwill Fayette operates several business enterprises to provide training and employment opportunities for clients and to generate revenues to help fund programs and services.
Contract Workshop - Assembly, sorting, collating, packaging and other handwork services for business and institutional customers.
Recycling Center - Serves 14 Fayette County communities and handles nearly 80 percent of the county's recycled material.
Janitorial Services - Cleaning services for private and institutional facilities.
