Trillium Employment Services

Trillium Employment Services Promoting inclusive community and employment opportunities. We were one of the pioneer supported employment agencies in the United States.

Trillium Employment Services is an organization committed to developing employment opportunities for individuals with developmental disabilities. Our staff of skilled professionals work closely with businesses and applicants to ensure a quality match and long term success. In addition to our focus on supported employment, we are equally committed to developing supports for individuals with develop

mental disabilities to participate in the community.

-Our History-

Trillium has been serving people with disabilities in Washington since 1983. We originated as a demonstration project by the University of Oregon to assist a local manufacturer of defibrillators, Physio-Control, in the employment of assemblers with developmental disabilities. This successful project demonstrated to the nation that people with significant disabilities could participate fully in businesses producing quality products of a critical nature. This demonstration helped to influence national legislation on supported employment and pave the way for other people with developmental disabilities to obtain jobs in the community, influence government to move toward community employment and away from sheltered employment, and inspire other businesses to employ people with significant disabilities.

-Vision-

We, the staff of Trillium, are committed to realizing a community that celebrates inclusion and diversity through innovative leadership and partnerships.

John is celebrating 3 years at Gulati Dental And Associates!

Working four days a week as a sterile technician, John takes pride in a job well done. From cleaning exam rooms to sterilizing dental tools in the autoclave, he enjoys working with his tools and machines and putting his mechanical skills to work.

His coworkers describe John as a team player who is always willing to help wherever he’s needed. He’s even stepped outside his comfort zone to occasionally cover the front desk during lunchtime.

John brings a positive attitude, attention to detail, and a strong work ethic to the dental office, and his coworkers appreciate all that he contributes.

Ramsey has found a place to belong through Rainier Adaptive Sports.

Rainier Adaptive Sports has also provided Ramsey with a loaner sports wheelchair, giving him the equipment he needs to take part.

This is what community inclusion can look like: finding opportunities that connect with a person's interests, building relationships, and creating space for everyone to participate.

At Trillium, our mission is to promote inclusive community and employment opportunities, and we're super grateful for our employment and community partners.
