Working hard to create stronger communities

Supporting our community

As a locally owned and operated company, we know what it means to be Minnesotan. We care about the people in our community because we believe in being there for our friends and neighbors when they need us most. From connecting with other local and national organizations to organizing community events, we want to do everything we can to support people with disabilities and their families. No matter where you come from, we believe that supporting our community means showing up and working hard to help everyone succeed.

Living our values

Pinnacle Services employees not only believe in helping others, but they live that purpose every day. Our employees volunteer their time and energy outside of work to further community initiatives that are near and dear to their hearts. Throughout the year, we also organize several volunteering events to build comradery and give back to our local community. For Pinnacle Services employees, helping others live better lives is more than a 9-5 job, it’s a calling. We answer that call with passion, excitement and a sincere desire to help others each and every day.

Where we’re located

Pinnacle Services is located in a rejuvenated 100+ year-old building in Northeast Minneapolis, a safe and trendy neighborhood that’s home to hundreds of artists and young professionals. Each year, arts festivals bring crowds to the neighborhood and celebrate Northeast’s creative spirit. Our office is also close to some of the most celebrated restaurants in the city, so there’s always something new to try for lunch. Located at 724 Central Avenue NE, our office is easily accessible from downtown or 35W. Come for the meaningful work, but stay to explore the trendy neighborhood!
