NW Works has brought new experiences for me like the garden… it’s my favorite thing. I can do things by myself sometimes. I have a good path. I’ve enjoyed it so far!

Through ProjectSEARCH I learned how to do different jobs, which was good. I liked the people and different experiences. I’m enjoying my job now.. I get right to it and I do a good job. I’m making sure that every student has a clean environment.

We feel very fortunate to have these hardworking individuals from NW Works as part of our team… The labor market is incredibly tight and competitive right now, so the employees who come to us from NW Works have become an essential part of our day-to-day operations.

Your mission is people, progress and success. How could people not want to support that?

I dearly love working there. […] All the staff, no matter what our handicaps are, they’ve always treated me like a human being.
Andrea Koenker, NW Works’ Parent and Board Member
There’s never any doubt in my mind and never has been that the clients come first at NW Works […]They do a tremendous service and for the community as well, not just for the clients and the families.

We laugh together. We try to cheer each other up, calm down when you’re mad, calm down when you’re sad. Be brave, be yourself. You don’t have to be anybody but yourself here.
Richard Kozlow, Former Chair of the NW Works Board of Directors
What all of us here […] want is to somehow be able to lift this burden from the shoulders of our friends who come to NW Works every day. To allow them access to their dreams to be happy, to have a fulfilling life. To feel important, to have purpose, to be self-reliant. To have a social life if that’s what they want, and to feel valued: as friends, colleagues, and members of the community.
