Sunshine Resources in Sturgeon Bay has come a long way since its founding in 1971 to help those with special needs. As the organization marks its 50th anniversary, Sunshine Resources has greatly expanded its services. It now provides transportation, personal care, employment with the organization's facilities, such as the Sunshine Resale Store and Sunshine Business Services along with advanced career-building skills. Business Development Director Jeremy Pazczak says those are great accomplishments for a non-profit group that simply started as a hang out for people with special needs.
Pazczak says Sunshine Resources says today's clients are reaching heights not considered possible a half-century ago.
More recently Sunshine Resources have offered help to those with dementia, Alzheimer's and Parkinson's Disease help through the Sunshine Cottage in Sturgeon Bay.
