Service Manager

Founded in Austin in 1986, The Human Potential Center is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit educational organization. As an nonprofit, many of our events are free, so there are plenty of opportunities for everyone to get involved. Humanistic psychology asks, "What are people like when they are at their very best?" We aim to answer that by living in a way that is as creative, loving, genuine and playful as possible. Wheelchair Shop Manager Job Description GoodwheelChairs provides low-cost wheelchairs, powerchairs and scooters at a very affordable price. It is obvious that affordable mobility is essential for those who aren't covered by insurance. However, even people with insurance often need GoodwheelChairs, because insurance companies often refuse to pay for a scooter for use outside your home, a replacement powerchair if your first one breaks, a second powerchair so you can keep one powerchair at home and the other at work, or a transportable scooter that you can fold up in the back of your car and take to your son's soccer game.
