The Springfield Creative Learning Workshop offers a variety of activities to choose from. We currently offer Vocational, Habilitation and Sensory Activities. Our facility was recently renovated with new construction. Added to our building was a nice size multi-purpose room that also contains an operational kitchen. Also added was a dedicated vocational space to utilize for contract jobs.

Our vocational opportunities include contract jobs. Currently, we are working with a company called Tru Tec. We line up brake pads on rods that are then placed on a huge metal “tree.” Those parts are assembled here and sent back to Tru Tec for further processing. We also offer paper shredding. We have two industrial shredders for participants to use and this job is also broken into various stations to assist those using the shredders. Our participants also receive training on janitorial tasks, office skills, computer training and cooking classes. It is our mission to individualize each participants program needs to enhance their goals and wants from their Day Service provider. Some participants prefer a structured day while others prefer a more liberal day with room for diversity. Either way, we are willing to accommodate the best we can.

While we work closely with the two ICF-MR’s we are contracted to serve, we are also open to community waivers. We have the capacity for growth with our recent expansion construction. We provide transportation to and from CLW serving Clark County. We welcome tours and visits. We ask that you call ahead and schedule them with the Administrator or Assistant Administrator.

Along with Day Support Services, CLW also employs a full time on-sight nurse as well as a Job Coordinator. While our nurse tends to medical needs and medication distribution, our Job Coordinator assists individuals with securing community employment. Resume building, interview skills and making a good first impression are all part of the training received.

Again, we welcome tours and visits. We would be excited to welcome you for a look around and talk with our dedicated staff members.
