Over the last five years, New Vistas Board, staff, volunteers, community agencies, consumers and families have helped change how New Vistas operates. We have become very cost effective in each program, while at the same time attempting to have our salaries and contracts reflect competitive market place standards.The Production Center currently performs a variety of assembly “jobs” for two large corporations under contract with New Vistas.
All small assembly contracts with New Vistas have to be valued at a minimum of $24,000 per year.
New Vistas seeks contracts requiring clean small assembly work.
As a micro enterprise, the Production Center has several key goals:
- Generate surplus revenues to financially support the mission of New Vistas.
- This endeavor reflects New Vistas leadership’s intent to further diversify New Vistas funding streams.
- Generate sufficient revenues to “grow” the micro enterprise.
- This represents New Vistas effort to become more independent from the traditional government related funding while at the same time advocating for adequate public funding for services to individuals with disabilities and families of children with special needs.
