Skils’kin is a community-based, nonprofit organization that provides employment services to adults with disabilities, helping them grow and thrive within the community. Skils’kin helps individuals with disabilities find meaningful employment, promoting integration and, ultimately, a top quality of life in the process.

In 1970, concerned parents, family members and business leaders in Spokane organized the Pre-Vocational Training Center to provide services to Spokane-area adults with developmental, physical and mental disabilities. In 2004, the company name was changed to Skils’kin, a Native American word that means “a place where a person goes to seek personal identity and self-empowerment.” Working with national and local businesses and organizations, we are able to assist people with a wide variety of disabilities to become more self-reliant and economically self-sufficient. Skils’kin now provides services in Washington, Montana and Wyoming.
