Social Enterprise

A Business on a Mission of Disability Inclusion

Day8 Staffing Solutions is a Social Enterprise. That means we deliver expert services and make a positive impact in your community. As a division of Northwest Center, Day8 helps fund services that make the world more inclusive for people with disabilities.

How Our Social Enterprise Model Works

Northwest Center has led inclusion efforts since 1965, when we created the first laws guaranteeing all children an education. Our therapy, education, and employment services for people with disabilities seek to maximize their potential. Our mission is to create inclusive schools and workplaces for everyone.

As part of our Social Enterprise model, we own a portfolio of businesses that meet the service needs of Fortune 500 companies, medium-sized enterprises, small businesses, local governments, and federal agencies.​

How Day8 Supports Disability Inclusion

Day8 generates revenue that funds Northwest Center’s services, such as education and employment programs for children and adults with disabilities.
