Able began in 1960 as the Tulare County Training Center for the Handicapped. It started with a volunteer staff and a client population of under 20 individuals. While beginning as a drop-in center for arts and crafts and it grew over time to incorporate work training as its primary focus. Stuffing envelopes, packaging, and product sorting were early contracts with local businesses. Over time, the agency has grown to provide services to the greater part of Tulare County. We recently moved to a 37,000-square-foot facility in the Industrial Park of Visalia where we offer life skills programs, job training and intern opportunities, and competitive integrated employment programs; this is also where our administrative offices are located. For the first time in our history, Able Inc. is all under one roof and we couldn’t be more excited!
