Through our mission we enhance the dignity and quality of life for individuals and families by strengthening communities, eliminating barriers to opportunity, and helping people in need reach their full potential through learning and the power of work. We intentionally serve marginalized populations within these communities and lift up long-term pathways for individuals who have disabilities and disadvantages, veterans and military families, teens and young adults, and others who face barriers to employment. We are guided by three principles: Inspired by People, Power of the Whole, and Results Matter. We call it The Goodwill Way.
