Keeping Our Community Clean, Safe, and Beautiful

Real skills through real work that creates meaningful community impact

At PSW, we are committed to building inclusive communities while preparing individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities for meaningful employment. Through our Facilities & Grounds Services program, individuals receive training to deliver high-quality maintenance services that ensure indoor and outdoor spaces remain clean, safe, and welcoming.

Through our programs, we cultivate a workforce of reliable, skilled individuals eager to contribute to local businesses and community projects. Partnering with PSW means you gain access to a dedicated talent pool and the opportunity to create lasting community impact.

On-the-Job Training Through PSW-Run Services And Community Partnerships

PSW operates several in-house maintenance crews, where individuals receive hands-on training and professional guidance across diverse service areas. Participants build practical skills, establish dependable work habits, and gain confidence to transition into community employment.

Participants learn essential job skills, such as time management, task planning, safe tool use, and maintaining site safety, all under the guidance of experienced staff dedicated to supporting individual growth and success.

Individuals who complete training in these roles are well prepared to step into positions with businesses like yours, bringing enthusiasm, reliability, and a strong work ethic.
