Carroll Hills Industries
Carroll Hills Industries, Inc. (CHI) is a non-profit organization that offers adult citizens with disabilities and opportunity for employment.
The adult enrollees in the Carroll Hills Industries participate in light assembly work contracted through GBS. Folders are assembled with inserts used in many legal and medical facilities. Individuals also apply clear plastic pockets to the outside of the folders and attach metal binder clips to other folders depending on the contract requirements. The Individuals also provide contract services to Salem Label Team providing contract work for packaging and sorting plastic product labels and Ashton's 5&10 providing contract work for labeling and stamping postcards.
The newest contract work made available to CHI enrollees is assembling and packaging a pair of electrical pliers for Channel-Lock made right here in Carrollton by Seven Ranges.
An additional venture that CHI began in 2010, with the assistance of the CCB purchasing a document scanner, is record scanning. Documents are entered into the scanner, where they are then transferred into a computer. Files and sub files are developed to organize these documents as they are saved to a computer server provided by GBS. CHI is currently working to scan in files from the CCB School, then moving on to the CCB stored files and then possibly opening this service to community agencies for future contract work.
CHI is also moving forward with their shredding service. CHI is now able to handle large quantities of paper to be destroyed with our commercial size shredder. Area businesses and organizations contract with CHI to have discarded paper picked up and shredded at a per pound rate.
CHI also offers a badge and key chain making service to local schools, businesses, and politicians in two sizes.
CHI Lawn Care provides mowing, trimming, weeding and leaf removal services to area businesses and private homes throughout the county.
CHI also provides light janitorial services, office cleaning, restroom cleaning, floor care, trash removal, window cleaning, etc. for a few local businesses.
The Community Employment Program through Carroll Hills Industries currently has individuals working at Pizza Hut, McDonald's and Napa Distribution Center.
CHI looks forward to continued success in preparing and supporting individuals to be contributing members of the community.
