Since our beginnings in 1957 Marc Center has continued to evolve and re-invent itself to adapt to changes in the political, social and economic environments. Through all of these changes we have remained committed to the principles defined by Marc’s original founding families. We take great pride in being able to state that as an organization we represent yesterday's values, today’s services and tomorrows vision. From a strategic perspective, as we look to Marc’s future we know that we will again have to adapt to new and more complex challenges. Today we serve approximately 2,600 clients and by 2013 that number will increase to at least 5,000 individuals. Marc’s operating budget is expected to expand from $18 million to over $35 million by 2013. This growth will also result in the doubling of the transportation fleet, significant increases in the number of employees and at least doubling the number of community living sites. These locations will have to evolve to serve clients that are older and clients that will have increased special needs. As an agency that plans to continue to provide services for another 50 years, Marc has implemented the strategic process to build an appropriate management infrastructure that will be capable of leading the agency into the future. These actions will provide stability for our current and future clients. We remain committed to never forget that we exist to serve the needs of those with disabilities.
