\u00a0About Martin Enterprises <\/span>in Williamston, NC<\/span><\/h1>\n

Martin Enterprises, located in Williamston, North Carolina, is a community rehabilitation program which was established in 1972 as an adult day care center for people with disabilities under the administration of the local community college.<\/p>\n

Today the non-profit operates an adult developmental vocational program, two group homes, a vocational services program, psychosocial rehabilitation, and a CAP-MR\/DD program for adults with developmental disabilities. Participants must be 16 years of age for day services and at least 18 years of age for residential services.<\/p>\n

The program’s goal is to provide opportunities, training, and supports for individuals to assist them in becoming as independent as possible at home, at work, and in the community. The agency provides job training, job placement, and work activities for its clients. The emphasis is placed on meeting the individual needs of each adult, taking into account each person’s unique abilities and disabilities.<\/p>\n
