We get everyone back to productive by proactively managing the vocational claims process for industrial injuries. Single Handed Consulting is not your ordinary vocational services company. Led by seasoned workers compensation professionals, SHC consultants are on point with customized quick response plans to fit every unique need. We aren’t motivated by quotas. We’re all about results — helping focus injured workers on positive changes and plans that will become a bedrock of stability in their lives. SHC offers a comprehensive array of vocational services. However, our early engagement brings immediate and long-term results. By safeguarding the employee/employer relationship with proven return-to-work strategies, SHC helps injured employees avoid the long-term dependence and social withdrawal that often results with traditional, slow-response casework. SHC’s rapid deployment model unequivocally delivers for employers. Early intervention strategies deployed by SHC can bring a time-proven four-fold savings in L&I rates to your business’s bottom-line. SHC consultants come from a variety of backgrounds in the public and private sector — as former L&I caseworkers, employers, and even employees who’ve experienced firsthand the uncertainty of personal injury/disability. This vast and diverse experience base means not only a compassionate approach to every case, but also a frame of mind that nothing is impossible. We have decades of experience providing professional and personable services to employers, governmental agencies (federal, state, city and county), injured workers, medical providers and disability case managers. Are you ready for a new approach to your workers compensation program?

Founded in 1936, The Arc of Washington State has been a champion for people with intellectual/developmental disabilities and their families for decades. What started as a small group of parents in Pierce and King Counties has grown into a statewide grassroots advocacy network of individuals, family members, service providers and other interested community members. It is an affiliated chapter of The Arc of the United States and supports 9 local county chapters. Developmental disabilities occur prior to the age of 18 and are expected to last a lifetime, and include Down syndrome, cerebral palsy, epilepsy, autism, intellectual disabilities and other genetic and neurological syndromes. People with developmental disabilities have inherent potential and value and deserve a fully inclusive life in the community with their family, peers, neighbors and friends.

WE BUILD BRANDS FROM THE INSIDE OUT Without an audience, a brand doesn’t exist. And the strongest brands unify their audience under a common vision. We call this Branding from the Inside Out™. Why is it important? Because having one brand anthem that resonates with employees, customers and even the casual observer is the perpetual motion machine of brand loyalty. Since 1979, we’ve partnered with companies who understand how design can drive culture (inside and out), ideas and sales. We bring together problem solvers, strategic thinkers and conceptual designers to develop compelling brand stories. CLIENT EXPERIENCE We are independent thinkers and tireless collaborators. As strategists, designers, writers and producers, we use our collective talent to identify and fulfill branding opportunities. Through our history, we've had the privilege of partnering with great clients such as Target, U.S. Bank, Gap, Buffalo Wild Wings, Lowe's, Microsoft, Medtronic, Fair State Brewing Cooperative and more.
