Arc’s Contract Services provides employment opportunities and training for people with developmental disabilities while also serving the needs of the local business community; operating at many sites throughout the county including National Grid’s Investment Recovery unit in Liverpool, NY, and contracts with New York State on janitorial jobs. Arc Contract Services employs approximately 100 people in Onondaga County and provides the Syracuse area with more than $1.5 Million in outsourcing services such as custodial, recycling, sorting and mailroom services.

COMMUNITY BASED EMPLOYMENT

Arc’s community based employment works hand-in-hand with more than 40 local, state and federal businesses placing supervised individuals with disabilities in employment positions on a subcontract basis. These individuals work both on mobile work crews and alongside other employees in the community, on some occasions, comprising the entire workforce. Some of the positions include but are not limited to mail room operations, food service, janitorial, manufacturing and assembly.

“Thanks to Arc of Onondaga, OCRRA has welcomed an amazing worker who helps us reduce waste in Onondaga County. This partnership is a clear win for everyone.”
