 In 1983 DRTC opened its own internal business, Prism Place, manufacturing custom-made acrylic awards.Through Prism Place, the agency's Board of Directors and executive director knew they were offering an important service to the community and at the same time laying a foundation for a better life for individuals with disabilities.Ten years into the manufacturing business, as Prism Place was growing by leaps and bounds, the Board of Directors decided to expand the product line by beginning to offer traditional wooden plaques and trophies.
