Mission Statement

Center Pointe provides positive social/recreational and educational activities for adults with diverse abilities; in a safe, barrier-free environment.  Thereby, assisting members to overcome social isolation, develop friendships, increase life-skills, and serve others. Our purpose is to empower participants to achieve a positive self esteem and independence.

 

Our Vision

Provide social/recreational and educational activities to adults with diverse abilities to empower each to reach their highest potential as an important part of the community.

 

Center Pointe works with adults with disabilities, offering them classes and social interaction that they cannot easily find in our busy day to day world.

Center Pointe, formerly known as the Spokane Rehabilitation Center, was established in 1953. We provide a safe and barrier-free environment for recreation, socialization and educational activities. We serve as an extended family for those without family or those with family not involved in their lives.

We encourage our participants to be independent, to have a positive self-image and to be of service to others.

 

To that end, we have a series of fundraisers, in addition to our United Way funding, in an effort to keep that dream alive.

 

Center Pointe does not receive Federal, state or local funding. The generosity of United Way donors continues to provide our most stable source of income. We also have fund-raising events to augment our base income.

 

Of the money raised, less than 15% goes toward administrative costs. Our paid staff includes one full-time and five part-time employees. Each paid staff has a degree with experience or a working knowledge in the field.

 

Volunteers are an essential component of Center Pointe's successful operation. Without these dedicated individuals, the activities and services we provide would not be possible.
