Mountain Lake Services began in 1967 with 15 citizens who were concerned about the lack of support for people with developmental disabilities in their communities. From our beginning, providing vocational training at our work center, Essex Industries, through the development of residential and day services, we now offer a wide array of services to suit any need and capability.Here at Mountain Lake Services our mission is to partner with people of all abilities to live their very best lives. Our vision is to be an inspirational model for advancing people's journey through excellence, innovation, and connections. By offering a comprehensive range of services we ensure that we are indeed meeting the needs of the individuals we support, their families and our communities.
