RSI was started in 1988 to provide supported employment services in the Minot community for persons with disabilities. Since its inception, RSI has become a community leader in employment programs for persons with disabilities. With our success, we have been able to expand our services to include 13 different programs serving people with individual needs. Our agency now has housing programs, thrift stores, services for offenders, residential services for people in treatment, and support groups for children.
