Creative Works

Creative Works Creative Works is a Maine-based nonprofit rehabilitation agency serving the diverse and wide ranging needs of persons with disabilities.

Creative Works developed from an association founded in 1967 by parents to provide education and training for their children with disabilities. In the ensuing years, the organization has evolved from serving children to serving adults, but has maintained the community-based grassroots spirit on which it was founded. Originally located in the Biddeford/Saco area, CW has expanded its service to include offices in Westbrook, Saco, Lewiston, Augusta and Auburn. CW programs and services provide assistance to over 400 people daily. These services include employment in area businesses as well as CW owned businesses; residential support; independent and group living; and personal development through comprehensive community services.

DSPs (Direct Support Professionals) are often called the backbone of our agency. They support all functions with strength and flexibility. In our opinion, they are so much more!
This week we celebrate the eyes and ears that keep us safe and engaged, and the heart and soul that believes in the beauty and integrity of every person.
This week, we celebrate DSPs for EVERYTHING they do. Happy DSP Recognition Week!
