What we enjoy

As we continue to celebrate Developmental Disabilities Awareness Month, we thought you’d like to hear from some of the people Dale Rogers Training Center (DRTC) supports by providing training/jobs.

Individuals participating in DRTC’s various programs are skilled, dedicated workers who have dreams and goals like everyone else.

By working at DRTC or in the community, they are able to earn a paycheck, pay taxes, buy things for others and themselves, and give back to the community.

But the hard-working folks at DRTC need your help. The next time you’re looking for any of the goods and services DRTC provides, consider us for your needs.

We’re more than capable fulfilling your orders and you’ll get the added benefit of knowing you’re making a real difference in the lives of others.

Dale Rogers Training Center (DRTC) is the oldest and largest community vocational training and employment center for people with disabilities in Oklahoma. With multiple locations in Oklahoma, DRTC trains or employs more than 1,100 people with disabilities per year. Visit us online: DRTC.org.

 

 

Working Hard For Our Clients!

The Vocational Services Program and Special Needs Program are super busy this month. We are completing a big order for Sela that includes packaging appliance cords, hoses, and/or accessories. Plus, we are placing Steri Fab cleaner into individual shippers for the same company. We also received another shipment of books for Scholastic – we place a price sticker on the front of the books that are sold at their Book Fairs.

These programs do business with more than 41 companies during the year such as, Pelco, Bodycote, Digital Design, OG&E, Hitachi, Unifirst, Corken and Beams. Dale Rogers Training Center is the oldest and largest non-profit vocational training and employment center for people with disabilities in Oklahoma. Individuals placed in the community or in-house programs earned 5.5 million dollars in wages last year.
