arrowKings Rehab Center lands jobs

The Kings Rehabilitation Center, which provides jobs and life-skill services for adults with special needs in Kings County, has landed a jobs deal with Exopack in Hanford.

Exopack produces bags used in construction, dairy, pet food and bulk food industries.

The work keeps four to five Kings Rehabilitation clients busy six hours a day, five days a week, said Carol Rogers, the center's executive director, in a statement. "We have enough work lined up for a year," she said.

There had been a price change needed on a line of pet food bags already produced, and Craig True, quality manager of Exopack, asked Kings Rehabilitation if it could remedy the situation. The center did. "They did a very good job," he said.

The center works with employers to make good job matches, sometimes using vocational instructors to supervise work. Details: 582-9234.
