Since our beginnings in 1952, Beacon Group has been committed to providing employment related opportunities to people with disabilities. We provide training, development and access to real work for a segment of our community that traditionally bears a 70% unemployment rate. We help people go from tax-supported to tax-payers. In 2003, Beacon Foundation and Tetra Corporation merged to become Beacon Group, and we now serve over 2,200 people with disabilities each year. We provide a variety of employment related programs, as well as the education and socialization necessary for our members to lead meaningful, productive lives. Our business operations offer manufacturing, filling, kitting, packaging, document shredding services, and electrical assembly. We also employ offsite work crews that perform groundskeeping, clerical, assembly, automobile detailing, food service, and custodial maintenance.
