It's all about people. We work hard to exceed the expectations of our clients and the businesses we serve. From helping clients design their road map to success, to delivering quality products and services, we go above and beyond to make a positive impact.
History
Capabilities is a nonprofit in Elmira, NY that was founded in 1956 after community members recognized people with disabilities were often excluded from employment opportunities. Community members, some of whom belonged to the Elmira Rotary Club, worked tirelessly to raise money, construct a business and design an inclusive program. Our mission remains the same 65 years later: to empower those who want to work.
