Hello Valued Common Thread Customers,
As You are probably aware, we have decided to permanently close The Common Thread. Don't fear! Limitless Sales in Paulding is still open and ready for your support. This closure is purely a redirection of resources to create new experiences for our individuals, something we feel the Defiance community needs! All of our individuals have been transferred to Paulding and are loving the interactions with their old friends as they await something new! We already have a rapidly growing retail environment (Limitless) for our individuals to work in and grow their employment skills. They love interacting with you (our customers) and preparing items for our store floor. However, everyone's needs and wants are different. We are excited to be launching a new wellness service in Defiance, Emerge Wellness Services, with resources previously consumed by The Common Thread!
Although this is not a service open to the general public, we want to give our individuals different opportunities to grow and help others! Our individuals will be able to go on more outings, get matched up with sports teams, wellness mentors, community groups, and more. We believe this is how we heal, how we learn, and how we live! We are doing some amazing projects in the community and want as many of our individuals as possible to take part. PC Workshop's Emerge Wellness Services will be available to anyone who is a part of the other services offered by PC Workshop. Individuals may also enroll solely in PC Workshop Wellness Services. Emmerge Wellness Services will also be available to ANY high school student on an IEP.
As always, PC Workshop's first priority is the individuals we serve. Meeting their needs and expanding the opportunities available to them better lives out our organizations mission "To empower people with developmental disabilities to live their best lives through work opportunities and self development". Our organizations vision remains "We believe in people, in our communities and that we have the power to shape our communities. Regardless of who you are, you are CAPABLE of creating change! Our vision is that we can be in every county we serve in some capacity, helping to build what the community as a whole wishes to see with clients at the very center of it! Whatever it is our clients want out of their life, we want to help them gain the confidence and skills to go for it!".
We look forward to serving you!
-The PC Workshop & Limitless Team
