Our History

In 1965, Louis W. "Bill" Hausmann, Elton Grannemann, Donald C. Conrad and other concerned parents and friends surveyed the county and found an overwhelmeing need for a sheltered workshop.

With only a few employees, the first workshop opened in October 1967 in a small building in downtown Washington. To accommodate the growing number of employees, the Workshop has moved to several different locations throughout its forty year history.

In 1999, a 52,000 square foot building was purchased at 1600 West Main Street, to meet the needs of the growing community for many years to come.
