Who We Are

Life Skills is a Community Integration program that provides meaningful volunteer work for developmental disabled individuals in the City of San Fernando. Our goal is to create partnerships with local businesses and government entities for onsite work. From stock work to landscaping, Life Skills jobbers are known in the community by their bright orange vests. At the end of the day we all win and if we are lucky, we will make a new friend or two.

Micro-enterprise gives consumers the opportunity to be captain of their own ship. Small crews made up of three to four consumers join together and perform jobs in the community for local businesses.
Life Skills Shredding

After the shredding we recycle the the goods sell to our local business partner at the recycling center. That means more for our jobbers.
Life Skills Beautification

Beautification Program

Our beautification program is in it's third year. Our crews regularly clean up the San Fernando Mission trail, Maclay St, San Fernando Park, and area surrounding the courthouse. You can see our people twice a week with their orange vests and nifty grabbers making the environment a clean attractive.

Woodshop

Woodworking is an age old art that anyone with a little grit and determination can succeed it. Our woodwork begins with old chairs and furniture that neighbors and people in the know bring to Life Skills. Our jobbers sand, putty and prepare the piece for finish. The last step is a carefully application of pain or sealer. We use a variety of both hand and power tools. Customers pay our workers directly for a job well done. Sanding wood is a great fit for many of our folks who enjoy repetitive tasks.
Life Skills Janitorial
