Corporation for Public Management

Corporation for Public Management (CPM), founded in 1980, operates programs that enable people to break the cycle of welfare dependency and allows those with special needs to remain in the community, supporting their capacities to lead productive lives surrounded by friends and family rather than in institutionalized settings.

Corporation for Public Management seeks innovative solutions to such social issues as teenage pregnancy, welfare dependency, unemployment, under-employment and illiteracy. Each CPM program is based on the belief that self-esteem and personal dignity start with an ability to become self-sufficient.

CPM has always operated with a goal of helping the individuals served by its programs attain their fullest personal and economic potential regardless of the severity of the barriers they may face. The agency’s approach is to increase social and work competence, provide opportunities for participation in the greater community and develop those opportunities for all its participants.
