If you need trained applicants, we’ve got a solution.

Tired of sifting through resumés of under-qualified applicants? Looking for a way to connect with your community? Build a workforce for the tough sections of your business from the ground up. Toolworks can develop internship and training programs that create a pool of potential applicants trained to the specifications of your business.

Toolworks uses the highly successful Project SEARCH model of internship and training for people with disabilities. We identify tasks and departments most suited to the abilities of the individuals we serve, and provide an on-site trainer as interns work through their rotations. Classroom instruction develops worksite proficiencies and the soft skills needed to be successful in employment.

Internship and training programs provide you with a way to increase your pool of qualified applicants as well as demonstrate your commitment to inclusive work environments. We currently have curriculum developed for the healthcare and financial sectors. Let’s create an internship program for your business!

Finding a roommate. Learning to cook. Making friends.

We believe people with disabilities are vital members of their communities and that services should be available to support their full inclusion. Toolworks provides those supports through our community living and community integration services.

Community Living services can provide you with the support you need to maintain independent living, no matter the degree of assistance. From helping to locate housing to coordinating attendant care, we ensure supports are in place to maintain independent living.

Community Integration services help you participate fully in your community through volunteering, enrolling in classes, participating in community events, and more.

Our services are for people at all skill levels and we base our assistance on where you are in life. We follow your choices, ask the right questions, and listen to your answers. Our goal is to help you prepare for employment, choose a career, and be successful in your work.

We provide many different services, from job placement to internship opportunities to job training, we have the tools to connect you with employment.

We want to help you find a great job that answers those questions.

We can help you prepare a resumé, practice for an interview, access assistive technology, and more.

What does quality mean to you?

To us, quality is a sense of ownership and pride. It’s customer satisfaction. It’s being proactive and it’s making sure that your facility not only looks clean, but that it actually is clean. As a leading member of the janitorial service industry we realize that the quality of services delivered is of the utmost importance.

We individually craft a quality control plan for every facility we manage to ensure we meet all site-specific needs.  Management site visits are scheduled regularly to assure compliance with the plan. A data analysis of these inspections is provided to the customer, and we regularly solicit feedback from each customer.

Our management team has extensive experience in the industry, and they work hard to pass that experience on to our janitors. Our crews are trained not only in janitorial skills, but also in customer service. They are reliable, each with many years experience. More importantly, they have pride in their work and a sense of ownership, taking a proactive approach to cleaning.
