Gulf Coast Industries is a Gulf Coast Mental Health Center (Region XIII) work activity center providing prevocational and vocational skills training for adults with developmental disabilities.

It is our belief that every person no matter what the nature or degree of disability can have an opportunity to become a part in the competitive work force. We accomplish this  by providing settings to enhance individuals with the ability to be independent through various educational programs, training sessions, and community outings.

Our goal is to create an environment that teaches individuals how to build self-confidence, provide opportunities to learn social skills, and instruction on working in the community. by exposing you to a variety of job skills.
