I like the colors of the laces, meeting new people, and just having fun with the whole process.

Co-Founder, Special Faces

There is a vast number of people with special needs such as developmental disabilities or mental illness, who are underemployed. Our goal is to create jobs that meet their unique needs in a fun-filled space where they can feel like they belong and are excited to go to work.

For me, the most rewarding aspect of Special Faces is creating rewarding experiences for people with challenges. Everyone deserves to feel appreciated.

Creating a company where a diversified workforce of individuals, many of whom have challenges or special needs, thrive and grow, has been, and will continue to be a worthy and fun-filled journey.
