History
Triangle was founded in 1971 by a small group of individuals who believed that people with disabilities could learn to lead more independent and dignified lives. It began serving five people with developmental disabilities, and grew over the next decade to provide employment training for over 80 individuals and opened two community residences in Malden. Today Triangle serves over three thousand people from 170 communities throughout Southern New England. It operates six employment service centers and ten residences in Malden, Danvers, Beverly, Braintree, Brockton, Lynn, Reading and Waltham. Our services are described in rich detail throught this site. They include an award-winning School-to-Career program for young adults with disabilities, an array of career planning services for the deaf, comprehensive employment training and planning services for individuals with disabilities, an award-winning television show called Ablevision, a medical manufacturing facility, a contract fulfillment center and café that are staffed by trainees and a robust set of daytime activities for all of the people we serve.
