We kicked off our final week before break with interviews for our second internship placements! Interns also spent time building essential professional skills by practicing how to send thank you emails, creating Kahoot quizzes, and preparing for interviews. A great start to an exciting and busy week ahead!

Yesterday we spent the day out in the community building important life skills!

We started with a visit to the East Lansing Fire Department, where interns learned helpful fire safety tips, explored an ambulance and fire truck, checked out the fire gear, and toured the station.

Afterwards, Tiffany practiced an essential independent living skill by learning how to pump and pay for gas.

Our life-skills focus continued at Kroger with a scavenger hunt to practice finding groceries, checking prices, and staying within a budget.

We wrapped up the day at Moore Living Connections, where interns learned about their community living support program and explored future independent housing options.

A full and productive day of learning and growth! 🚒🛒🏡

Happy Birthday Tiffany. Have a great day!

Yesterday, Spartan Project SEARCH hit the road to share our program with East Lansing and Webberville High Schools! It was a wonderful day of presenting, connecting with teachers, and meeting prospective future students.

Our interns joined us and each presented about themselves—where they’re from, why they applied to Project SEARCH, the jobs they’ve been doing, what they’ve learned, and their future goals. They did an amazing job representing our program!

As a reward for their hard work, we stopped for lunch at McDonald’s, where interns practiced money skills and enjoyed being out in the community. We even had some fun music sing-alongs in the car during our travels.

Great job, interns! 🎉

Today marked another great day of budget practice! 💵🛒 Interns put their price-guessing skills to the test by playing The Price Is Right with real grocery items, then jumped into a scavenger hunt to read store ads and find the best deals. We wrapped it up with another exciting round of our budget game to keep building those real-world money skills!

We also braved the cold for some fresh air and a little outdoor exercise—great teamwork and great energy all around! Then warmed up with team building and communication practice in puzzle building.❄️💪

Today we take the time to learn about common challenges those with disabilities face every day living in a world that is often not designed with inclusion in mind.

Today our interns jumped into a friendly competition with several rounds of a budget game! They explored the unpredictable ups and downs of everyday expenses, practiced identifying income vs. expenses, and learned just how quickly debt can build if you're not careful.

We were also joined by our friends from Disability Network of Mid-Michigan to kick off training on safe practices for using public transportation. Interns learned how to plan bus trips, navigate routes, and explore transportation options they can use after graduation.
A great day of real-world learning and skill building!
