Building Community

Building Community is a passion of Ability

There is a difference between Building Community with Ability and the typical approach to business charity. Philanthropy is not just a side activity for Ability Remodeling. Instead, every job is an opportunity for people who live with a developmental disability. We help those with disabilities gain skills, earn a living, and have a sense of inner pride.  Ability Remodeling employs workers with disabilities from all over the greater Prescott area. These special individuals typically come from work training programs that help them develop job skills and hands-on training.  Ability Remodeling offers them the opportunity to improve on these skills within real job settings. They then have a chance to become a regular part of the Ability Remodeling crew. Meaning, they get to work in homes, learn a craft, and help themselves live more independently in the community.

How this Helps

“Offering skills, training, outreach, and other opportunities for those with developmental disabilities gives more meaning to what we do.” Explains Daniel. “These are individuals who typically lack opportunities for real work outside of a confined warehouse. We bring our trainees and employees out into the community. We go into people’s homes, and help them see how their work gets results and benefits customers.”

In addition to their work with the disabled, Ability Remodeling donates ample amounts of time, money, materials, and volunteer work to locally based causes. Daniel states that one of the organizations “closest to our heart” is U.S. Vets. U.S. VETS helps provide counseling, housing, and employment to veterans, and Disabled American Veterans.

Other important causes Ability supports include:
