ProAct, Inc.

Mission Statement

To provide person-centered services that enhance the quality of life for people with disabilities in the areas of employment, life skills, and community inclusion.

Impact and Programs

Accomplishments For the year ending June 30, 2023 ProAct had the pleasure of serving over 900 adults with disabilities. Over the years, ProAct has grown and expanded its services to include employment development and support, in-home support services, enrichment programming, virtual classes, and more. Throughout every change and expansion, our commitment remains steadfast to improving the quality of life for people with disabilities. This year, we’ve continued our focus on growth and ensuring our work elevates our mission as we transitioned away from our work floor model. In April, ProAct closed its last center-based work eliminating our 14c subminimum wage certification. In 2024 we look forward to opening our Autism and Leisure Centers in Eagan and an indoor recreation center in Red Wing. These additions will allow us to expand our mission services and continue our quest to maintain a diverse and inclusive population. ProAct participated in many community activities; to advocate and educate Legislators in disability service needs, the participants and staff attended Disability Day at the Capitol. Many volunteered at several local businesses that prepare food for children, serve aging adults with meals and doing lawn care and snow removal. At Christmas each year ProAct adopts another local charity to give back, this year gifts and monetary donations were given to a family shelter.
Current Goals Place a minimum of 12 individuals into competitive employment each month and place 95% of individuals into jobs within 4 months of the start of service. Ensure that 80% of those placed retain employment for 90 days. At all four sites, 85% of participants in enrichment classes will participate in community classes each month. We would like to add 10 new Enclaves over the course of the year. ProAct continues to rebuild after the pandemic and has goals for each program to increase enrollment between 15% and 35% during the year.
