  • Our son, Beau, has been working at Employment Horizons for over twenty years. He finds a safe environment, where he has learned the value of working, and  being a responsible individual. He has found friends he would not have met if this place were not there. Beau has always wanted to work there, everyone there would not be the person they have become without Employment Horizons. - The Mirsky Family
  • Our 39 year old son and brother Danny who has autism has benefitted from the services provided at Employment Horizons for many years.  This program has given us the peace of mind we need for our loved one who has an unusual combination of abilities and disabilities which make it challenging to find the right fit for employment.  At Employment Horizons the work environment is welcoming, supportive, safe, cheerful, clean and stimulating.  It is staffed by very skilled and caring professionals who know how to bring out the best in the people to whom they provide services.  Employment Horizons is an outstanding state of the art program that addresses the needs of a wide variety of people with a range of abilities, and we really appreciate their open-mindedness to see the potential in all.   - Program Participant Family
