WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT SUPPORT
See how we help people with disabilities find an ideal position
The Kennedy Collective Facilities Maintenance enterprise provides hard-working crews of people with disabilities, who will clean your building and beautify your grounds efficiently and comprehensively. Our fully-insured teams are accompanied by a supervisor, and are trained to service industrial and commercial properties of all sizes – on a weekly, as-needed, or one-time basis.
Using the latest sanitizing technologies to provide a superior level of cleaning and disinfection, and handling all forms of groundskeeping and landscaping, our teams distinguish themselves through their reliable and detailed work. People with disabilities remain a largely untapped, yet valuable, labor force – which you can leverage when you hire The Kennedy Collective Facilities Maintenance business.
Our social enterprises employ individuals with disabilities, and all proceeds from these enterprises are used to support people with disabilities.
The Kennedy Collective has been awarded Cleaning Industry Management Standard – Green Building Certification (CIMS-GB). CIMS-GB is a comprehensive certification that establishes standards by which quality-driven building service contractors and in-house cleaning organizations strive to maintain hygienic environments for the benefit of building owners and occupants. CIMS-GB certification enhances The Kennedy Collective's capability to partner with customers to achieve Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design – Existing Buildings (LEED EB) and Operations and Maintenance (O&M).
Our diverse workforce has been delivering exceptional Facilities Maintenance since 1985. The Kennedy Collective team serves both Government and Commercial customers across the state of Connecticut, and now beyond.
The Kennedy Collective Facilities Maintenance teams use Green Clean products and environmentally-friendly processes. At the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, The Kennedy Collective was one of the first to provide electrostatic misting (e-Mist) disinfection services in the state of Connecticut. e-Mist is still offered in both Government and Commercial contracts.
Government agencies are using The Kennedy Collective for facilities maintenance, including these organizations. Government entities recognize that our services are tailored to their requirements, processes can be scaled to both small and large areas, and large crews are used to move in and out of facilities in a timely manner.
Over 20 years ago, The Kennedy Collective expanded its job training services for individuals with disabilities to include groundskeeping and landscaping – building a small crew that was trained on The Kennedy Collective properties before expanding to service residential lawns, commercial properties, and state property contracts. What began as an employment training program focused on teaching individuals the fundamentals of property care has evolved into a full-fledged business enterprise offering a range of groundskeeping and landscaping services.
A growing number of commercial partners recognize the cost-effective, high-quality service provided by The Kennedy Collective Facilities Maintenance enterprise, including these local organizations.
