The Garden House Store supported employment program
We believe everyone has something positive to contribute to their local community. That’s why ASC has established The Garden House Store (GHS), a non-profit organization providing pre-vocational training and volunteer employment opportunities for persons with mental disabilities. The meaningful work done at GHS is critical to the recovery process for persons with mental disabilities, as it helps them become contributing members of society.
The Garden House Store is an adjunctive therapy to the ASC continuum of services. All ASC clients will have the opportunity to work and learn in this innovative environment. The goal of the GHS supported employment program is to teach new skills in therapeutic environments, enabling our clients to attain personal goals and take greater control over their lives.
