About Toolworks
Our Mission
Toolworks,
in partnership with people with disabilities, is a human service
agency dedicated to providing the tools and resources that promote
independence, equality, and personal satisfaction. Toolworks was
established in 1975 as a private, nonprofit corporation serving
individuals in the San Francisco Bay Area by:
-
Providing services that increase economic and social opportunities
for people with disabilities
- Creating
programs driven by client choice
- Encouraging
personal growth to increase one's potential
- Educating
the community to value the strengths and abilities of each individual
Toolworks
has been self-supporting from its inception, relying primarily upon
funding from the operation of service contracts staffed by its trainees.
Other funding sources are training fees by referring agencies and
occasional grants from public and private sources. The agency is
accredited by the Commission on the Accreditation of Rehabilitation
Facilities (CARF).
Toolworks
serves adults throughout the Bay Area, providing client driven services
that increase economic and social opportunities for people with
disabilities. An innovative forerunner in the community, we are
proud of our clients' achievements and are pleased to have played
a key role in their success.
