October was already a big month for Progress Industries in Newton.

In the midst of celebrating both Diversity Awareness Month and National Disability Employment Awareness Month, it now has something else to celebrate: a 2012 Top 100 Workplace ranking by the Des Moines Register. Progress Industries came in 27th in the mid-size nonprofit rankings.

“This recognition demonstrates the level of dedication and passion for people shared by our employees at Progress Industries,” stated Dan Skokan, President and CEO. This coupled with teamwork and a commitment to achieve personal and professional excellence directly impacts the lives of those we serve with disabilities to realize their individual goals.”
