Commitment to hiring individuals with developmental disabilities honored.
VERC Enterprises, a convenience store and Mobil/Gulf gasoline operator with 24 locations throughout Eastern Massachusetts and New Hampshire was recognized for its commitment to hiring those with developmental disabilities during the 16th annual “Celebrating Families” event at the State House.
The Patrick-Murray Administration honored individuals and families from across the Commonwealth for their innovative work to provide care, community inclusion and self-determination for people with disabilities during the March 28 event.
VERC Enterprises, widely recognized as a leader in hiring those with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities, was mentioned during the State House ceremony for its commitment “to having a workforce where 20% of the staff is developmentally disabled.”
“We are proud of our commitment to employ those in our communities with developmental challenges; it is a commitment we plan on honoring for many years to come,” said Leo Vercollone, president of VERC Enterprises.
