Employment Services
The Attic started in 1997 and EO Recycles in 2009. Both ventures began as a way to create employment opportunities for people with developmental disabilities. The goal of the employment program is to provide inclusive employment for people with developmental disabilities. While neither business can support full time employment, several people with and without disabilities are employed in both businesses, under the umbrella of Endless Options. Both businesses are based on the idea of reduce reuse and recycle.

Funding is provided for these program through the Missouri Department of Mental Health-Division of Developmental Disabilities, Mid Missouri Solid Waste Management District H, Howard County Sheltered Services Board, collaboration with Boonslick Industries, Inc., Fayette Area Common Fund, St Joseph Knights of Columbus, other sales, and private donations.

EO Recycles
EO Recycles offers an alternative to the citizens of Howard County for their recycling needs.

For the person looking for recycling drop off we offer sites at C&R grocery in Fayette, behind the post office in Armstrong and at the Casey's store in New Franklin. People also may bring their recyclables to the old Farm and Home building at 504 N. Cleveland in Fayette. For more information call 660-248-5233 or email info@endlessoptions.org.
