Business Spotlight: AccessAbility, Inc.

AccessAbility, Inc. (AAI), a First Ward non-profit organization located in the Mid-City Industrial neighborhood, is celebrating its 65th anniversary of providing services for people with disabilities and others with severe barriers to jobs and community inclusion. AAI provides immediate paid work and training for people who want to work, but due to serious challenges, need added support. This past month, its Project Connect program provided new work opportunities for more than 50 people. It also secured an exciting project for its Day Training & Habilitation program doing retail bag assembly for a local bag manufacturer’s new suitcase shipping product line. Throughout the year, AAI’s Evening Stars program hosts several events for adults with developmental disabilities from all around the Twin Cities area. Most recently, it hosted a Valentine’s Day dinner. To contact AAI about upcoming events, call 612-331-5958 or visit its websites at www.accessability.org and www.aabsi.com.
