The sheltered workshop is another important component of the Adult Day Program at the Key Training Center. Inside the sheltered workshop, Key Center staff help clients function in a vocational setting as independently as possible. Clients receive wages based on their ability, productivity and the prevailing wage for similar jobs.
Work involves repetitive tasks.
Jobs include simple product assembly, packaging items in bags or boxes, and the full scope of bulk mailing. Some projects includes repackaging products processed incorrectly in foreign countries. The Key Center's sheltered workshop helps businesses meet on-going and temporary high production demands for simple processes. Customer satisfaction occurs because quality control is maintained by close client supervision. Most clients participate in one of three vocational programs.
