Helping Texans with Disabilities Help Themselves
On Our Own Services, Inc. is a 501(c) (3) non-profit Community Rehabilitation Program (CRP) that provides employment to persons with disabilities. We work hard to impact the individual and the community that we all share.

Work training is provided through the State of Texas “Works Wonders” and the Federal government “Ability One” programs. Service contracting opportunities give us a chance to train and employ our individuals in real world work experiences while demonstrating each individuals ability to provide the highest quality of services to our customers the Federal Government, The State of Texas and political subdivisions within Texas.

On Our Own Services, Inc. also provides job placements services to individuals wanting community out placements. Out placement promotes the interaction between the community and the persons with disabilities.

Our Mission
Disabled individuals want and deserve the right to employment and the chance to become productive members of our Communities. At On Our Own Services we do not “DO” for them we give them the skills to “DO” for themselves. Statistics have proven that disabled individuals have better job performance; less missed days, lower rates of on the job injuries and longer time on the same job.

Because too many disabled individuals in the United State are unemployed or underemployed we work with NISH (Federal “Ability One” Program) and TIBH (Texas “Works Wonders “ Program) to obtain contracts so that we may continue to expand the employment and training opportunities we offer. After years of hard work and demonstrating that our employees could out perform the services we were the was the first CRP in the nation to be awarded a Full Facilities Maintenance contract for Interstate Safety Rest Areas. This and other similar opportunities have enabled us to increase the skill level of our employees as well as pay a higher wage.

Goals
We at On Our Own Services, Inc. understand that we serve two customers; our employees, as well as the customers who provide us our contracts. Our goal is to ensure we perform the highest quality service for a fair market price, while providing the proper support and training to the persons with disabilities that are performing the work.
