Press Release from RCPA Member Achieva: Published July 24, 2026

Excerpt below:


Bridgeville, PA - For more than 50 years, Achieva's Bridgeville Pallet and Packaging facility has demonstrated that hiring and investing in workers with disabilities is good for business and good for our community. A $750,000 Redevelopment Assistance Capital Program (RACP) award from the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, together with generous support from individual donors and private foundations, is supporting a major renovation of the facility to sustain and create new career opportunities for people with disabilities while strengthening regional manufacturing.


Achieva extends its sincere appreciation to State Senator Devlin Robinson for his leadership and personal involvement in securing this state grant for the project. We also wish to acknowledge and thank State Representative Anita Kulik for lending her valuable support to the grant application.
