Community Options is a nationally based nonprofit organization that is dedicated to promoting the dignity and self-determination of individuals with disabilities. They provide housing and employment opportunities for people with disabilities, ensuring that they have safe, supportive, and affordable places to live. Additionally, Community Options offers a range of employment services, including entrepreneurial businesses, supported employment with job coaching, and individual micro-enterprises, to empower individuals with disabilities to work and contribute to society.
One of their notable initiatives is Vaseful Flowers and Gifts, a flower shop that not only provides customers with beautiful floral arrangements and gifts but also supports people with disabilities as they enter the workforce. Through their School to Employment Program (STEP), Community Options offers job training and transition programs for high school students and young adults with special needs, equipping them with vocational education and social skills to enhance their future opportunities for competitive employment or post-secondary education.
