Lighthouse Vocational Services

A nonprofit organization

$185,771 raised by 350 donors

Founded on Christ centered values in 1975, Lighthouse Vocational Services (formerly Lighthouse Rehabilitation Center) supports individuals with disabilities in overcoming isolation and integrating into the community. Our founders—Norman Hahn, Melvin Martin, John Sensenig, and Ben Weaver—envisioned a space where people could grow, connect, and contribute.

 

Starting with just three participants in an old farmhouse in Blue Ball, PA, Lighthouse quickly expanded to over 20, primarily serving individuals from the plain community background. By the year 2000 Lighthouse outgrew its former facility and moved into the growing industrial park on Orlan Road where we operate out of today. We believe that every person has inherent value and purpose, providing dignity through vocational training and counseling.

 

Today, we uniquely serve over 200 individuals in our 25,000 square foot facility in New Holland, PA and in some surrounding counties. Lighthouse offers a variety of in-house, community-based, and online opportunities, helping participants gain skills, explore interests, and prepare for lasting employment. As Lighthouse enters our 50th year in 2025 we look to continue to Shine the Light of Hope & Opportunity to all who walk through our doors!
