We are unique because

Picture
W.A.L.L.S Inc. was created  because of a young man who became near and dear to our hearts. He is a young man with Autism and Cerebral Palsy. Over our ten year  relationship with him and his peers we have seen the lack of support he will have as he exits high school. He is a son of a single mother who has to work on a daily basis and is only able to provide him with a caretaker in his own home.  

The founders of W.A.L.L.S began  exploring options for this young man as he would need constant assistance to  succeed, feel fulfillment, and maintain a job in the workforce. After speaking  to several high schools’ special education teachers they also Emphasized the  need for the middle population such as our friend. 

  We decided there was a need for  a sheltered workshop in the Northwest of Indianapolis area. We created a board  of two special education teachers, a high school Math teacher, a first grade  teacher, a lawyer, Marian University administrative personnel, a financial 
consultant at Takeda, and a manager for tenant coordination at Simon Property  Group, and a retail management consultant. All of these board members have had a relationship with the young man  previously mentioned and are invested in his future. 

Another way W.A.L.L.S Inc. is  unique is by using a team concept to be successful. A team is comprised of a  group of adults with similar interests and different levels of abilities. Within the team there is a team leader who is an adult with disabilities that is able to help guide their team to success by building and using their leadership. This  leader concept will instill drive and motivation to other members of the team to  become leaders themselves. A team will also include a coach who will be a highly trained and energetic staff member of W.A.L.L.S Inc.
By contracting our work from our  local businesses our adults will be educating and contributing to their  community while having a purpose filled day. 
 
What make W.A.L.L.S. unique is  the environment and working situations that will meet each individual client’s  skill level.  Our goal is to match 
each adult with tasks that will allow him or her to be fulfilled with a sense of  accomplishment. Our team concept will also develop an ability to work with others.

W.A.L.L.S. Inc. is a 501(c)3 organization
