Ability Enterprises – or AE – is a licensed Day Training and Habilitation program designed for people with significant barriers to employment, yet with a desire to work. The program offers a variety of work, skills development, and volunteer activities, both in community job settings and in structured environments here in our facility. Through partnerships with local businesses, and under the supervision of our dedicated staff, clients work in paid positions and achieve a level of independence that anyone can appreciate. Here are some of our community-based business partners, and what AE clients do for them:
- Mayo Clinic – cafeteria monitoring, fitness floor custodial and general custodial services
- Rochester Community & Technical College – dish room, laundry, and delivery services
- Pepsi – repackaging and disposal
- Rochester Athletic Club – fitness floor custodial
- Microtel – laundry services
- Olive Garden Restaurant – silverware wrapping
- Doorstep Distributing – door-to-door delivery of fliers and coupons
Here in our building, Ability Enterprises has the staff and training resources to help people try new things, develop new skills, or further their existing skills. It’s also an environment for people who may be unable to work at a community-based job. Here are some of the jobs Ability Enterprises does from the main building:
- Kit-building
- Packaging
- Collating
- Assembly
