Vocational Services

The Arc Jefferson - St. Lawrence operates three Fort Drum service contracts. These contracts consist of base-wide custodial services, dining facility attendant services and the management of the Central Issue Facility and are set aside under the Javits-Wagner-O’Day Act. St. Lawrence operates two federal AbilityOne janitorial and grounds service contracts. The contracts provide unique vocational training and employment opportunities for persons with disabilities. Our employees interact with soldiers and civilians at Fort Drum on a daily basis. In conjunction with Fort Drum Contracts, Jefferson County also operates a janitorial and grounds keeping contract through the General Services Administration (GSA) at the Wellesley Island Border Station.

This program provides meaningful and gainful employment opportunities to persons served and provides a variety of training opportunities that assist individuals to achieve their goals and reach their maximum potential. The program is also designed to help individuals understand the demands of working by developing skills, attitudes and behaviors that improve their work functioning. Our individuals take pride in performing assembly work and various manufacturing tasks. Individuals enjoy meaningful careers at integrated job sites.
