"Creating Opportunities for People with Disabilities"
Skookum has been creating jobs for people with disabilities and barriers to employment since 1988.
"Skookum" is a Chinook word meaning strong or well made in a better or unique way. This is demonstrated throughout our company everyday; in the way we treat each other and the superior quality we provide our customers.
