An agency that provides opportunities for local residents with developmental and intellectual disabilities is preparing a new space to help clients interact and find employment.

ACHIEVE has broken ground on a new 11,000 square foot facility on Cutler Pond road in the Town of Dickinson.  The new facility will be home to the Adult Social Program and Employment Services Department.

In addition to offices and conference rooms on the business side, the building will have activity rooms for music, art, and exercise.

The facilities are expected to be available for use in a year.
