New Horizons launches new future-focused programs and branding
Nonprofit adapts to changing needs and celebrates progress with updated look
NORTH HILLS, Calif. (Sept. 10, 2019) — New Horizons, a nonprofit organization dedicated to
empowering individuals with disabilities to reach their fullest potential, has launched a new brand
look and tagline to go with its newly transitioned services. As the organization looks to the future,
this symbolizes its ongoing commitment to growing and evolving with the needs of the community.
The updated New Horizons logo resembles a rising sun, evoking a sense of hope and possibility. The
design reflects New Horizon’s vision of building an inclusive world that celebrates strengths,
respects all abilities and embraces diversity.
“For more than 65 years, we have proudly been a leading provider of services to individuals with
special needs,” said John C. Brauer, M.A., New Horizons president and CEO. “As we prepare for the
decade ahead and strive to become even more engaged in the community, we are reimagining our
programs and services to facilitate long-term growth and flexibility in the support and resources we
offer. We’re looking forward to what the future holds, and our new look celebrates both where we’ve
been and where we’re headed.”
Similar to the logo, the organization’s new tagline: Bold Futures. Unlimited Possibilities, embodies
New Horizon’s commitment to opening doors for individuals of all abilities by increasing self-
confidence, teaching valuable skills and facilitating continuous growth.
As part of New Horizons’ focus on modernizing its services, the organization recently purchased 15
Microsoft Surface Pro tablets to help its clients learn transferable skills needed to be a part of today’s
job market and has recently launched its GoGrocery grocery training center in partnership with
Albertsons stores. Other changes include expanding its employment services department. Moreover,
as the organization looks toward future possibilities in navigating the evolving landscape, it will
continue to transition, improving its facilities to enhance the overall experience for all the clients it
serves.
