About us
For over 55 years, PRIDE Industries has delivered business excellence with a positive social impact. Through proven business performance, we are shifting the paradigm about the value people with disabilities bring to a high-performance workforce. We optimize our customers’ business operations while creating sustainable career opportunities and training for people with disabilities and other barriers to employment. We prove the value of an inclusive workforce model every day through our social enterprise model and operational success across multiple industries. Our services include facilities operations and maintenance services, custodial services, contract manufacturing, supply chain management, packaging and fulfillment services, and staffing and recruitment to commercial and government organizations nationwide. Our goal is to create 100,000 jobs for people with disabilities. One in five Americans has a disability, and two-thirds of working-age Americans with disabilities are unemployed. As the nation’s leading employer of people with disabilities, we believe that people of all abilities should have equal access to achieve their employment goals. And that belief shapes everything we are as a company. We are bound by a set of core values and a shared commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion.

Today is #WorldBrailleDay! World Braille Day is celebrated every year on the birthday of Louis Braille, inventor of the writing system that bears his name. But while more organizations are making their documents available in #braille, #blind and #visuallyimpaired people still have to contend with non-braille menus and other documents on a daily basis. It’s time to make printed materials more #accessible. #AwarenessWednesday Image: Close-up of a hand passing over a braille document, and the words, "January 4th is World Braille Day!"
