Inside Texarkana Resources for the Disabled: A Tour

At Texarkana Resources for the Disabled, no two days look the same. We spent a day inside — watching woodworking, sewing, packaging, and assembly happen side by side — and what we saw wasn't just work. It was independence in action.

What Happens Inside Texarkana Resources for the Disabled

Walk through the doors and you'll find real work getting done with real pride: assembling and packaging, sorting and labeling, woodworking and sewing, and so much more. Every task is a chance to build a skill, grow in confidence, and create something to be proud of. For the people here, it isn't busywork — it's the daily practice of independence, and it shows on every focused face.

Sixty Years of Building Independence

For more than 60 years, this has been a place where people with disabilities come to learn, grow, and belong. The mission is simple and powerful: help every person with a disability reach their fullest potential and independence. And it works — some members of this family have shown up for 40 years or more, with the same dedication and heart that makes the place so special. For many, it's more than a workplace. It's a second home.

Why HealthCARE Express Handles Their Workers' Comp

HealthCARE Express is proud to stand behind this team and handle their workers' compensation care. It means that if anyone gets hurt on the job, they have a place to turn — cared for the same way they show up for this community every single day. The people who pour so much into Texarkana deserve to be looked after in return, and that's exactly the role we're honored to play.

“Texarkana Resources is a place where independence is built every single day. We’re honored to care for the people who work so hard to build a stronger, more independent life for themselves and for our community.” — Kim Crockett, Director of Occupational Medicine, HealthCARE Express

Caring for the People Who Care for Our Community

Texarkana Resources for the Disabled has spent six decades proving what people are capable of when they're given the chance to grow. HealthCARE Express is grateful to keep their team healthy and safe — because a community is only as strong as the people looking out for each other. Welcome to independence. We're proud to be part of it.
