Anthesis is a 501c3 nonprofit organization dedicated to providing job training, vocational training, and adult and senior day services for adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities.
Established in 1966, Anthesis has evolved into a multifaceted organization with five major programs of service as well as a social enterprise thrift store.
Over 325 individuals who have disabilities are supported each year through the exceptional dedication of its staff and the outstanding leadership of the board of directors.

Once an individual feels job-ready and has begun working, Anthesis ensures they succeed in their new workplace by providing job coaches in the workplace to provide on-site employment support.
Job coaches help manage work quality and troubleshoot any issues that may arise in the workplace.

They develop a routine to help the individuals successfully perform the job duties assigned.
As a result, job coaches become a trusted resource for participants, on and off the job, to ensure the greatest success for all participants.
Anthesis also offers high-quality day programs for those individuals who do not wish to, or who are unable to work in the community.
The day programs offer a low staff-to-participant ratio, providing a safe and engaging space to learn, socialize and interact with the broader community.

the Adult Development Center, Round About Senior Services, and Integrated Employment and Community-Based Services (IECBS).
Daily activities for all programs include a wide variety of community access and inclusion outings.
Outings are a mix of educational and just for fun activities and are chosen to maximize joy while encouraging community engagement.
IECBS also focuses on supporting participants to improve social and emotional skills, developing vocational skills through volunteer opportunities and job readiness training to prepare for employment.
Anthesis also has a fleet of vans, including wheelchair adapted vans, to transport individuals throughout the community.
Since 1999, Anthesis' thrift store has been a vital part of its program and community.
