A Brief HistoryColumbia Industries started helping people in 1963 as United Cerebral Palsy Association of Benton & Franklin Counties. The purpose for forming the non-profit agency was clear: to promote the general welfare of persons with cerebral palsy and other handicaps. Today, our goals are similar, as we focus on helping as many people with disabilities as we can. The slogan that appears in our logo, “Your Partner for Success!” was chosen to reflect our commitment to successful partnerships with our trainees, our community, our board members, our staff, our donors – everyone who plays a part in our organization. In 1981, we adopted the name Columbia Industries to reflect our growth over the previous 18 years. We serve an average of 450 people each year. Our dedicated staff works with our trainees to provide a diverse array of products and services for the community. |
