TVS is a social enterprise dedicated to the employment & empowerment of individuals with disabilities and other barriers to employment. Our Manufacturing & Packaging business unit specializes in the blending and packaging of dry food and beverage products and dietary supplements. Our Programs & Services business unit offers day and residential programs for adults with disabilities, as well as offers employment evaluation/training/placement to individuals in various stages of vocational rehabilitation. Founded in 1967, our mission is to provide quality employment, job training and residential & community services to individuals with disabilities and other barriers to employment. In support of this, TVS established a food manufacturing facility in 2001 to offer a consistent source of job opportunities. Since then, TVS has produced more than 200 million pounds of dry food and beverage products for the U.S. government alone and has served dozens of commercial customers in the food and dietary supplements industries. The support services arm of TVS helps adults with disabilities find and retain meaningful employment, within and outside of TVS, and positively engage with the community. TVS employs 150 people at its 65,000 sq. ft. facility in Brevard, where it earned the Brevard/Transylvania Chamber of Commerce’s 2016 Business of the Year award.
