Contracts
Our Contracts Division employs significantly disabled individuals who, through their realization of dedication and hard work, can make significant contributions to our society while enriching their own lives. Expanding employment opportunities for these individuals helps our economy draw on the talent, creativity and work ethic of all its citizens.
Under the supervision of Goodwill, individuals employed in our Contracts Division are able to safely enter the workforce and become valuable, independent and self-sufficient members of society.
Government guidelines require at least 75 percent of employees placed from our Contracts Division in direct work hours to have a documented disability. It’s our way of helping individuals be as efficient as possible.
