We recently had a chat with former CDHD student trainee, Avery Pierce-Garnett. It was great to hear how he's able to put the skills he gained from his time at the Center to work in his current role as a teacher. This includes improved communication skills and his growth as a person.

Hear all about it from Avery: https://ow.ly/TUc950YCWNH

April is here, bringing with it another opportunity to highlight another one of our direct services!

These monthly posts are all about providing information and services available to those we serve in the hopes of making the connection you need to live, learn, work and play in your community!

Speaking of connections, this month we'll be taking a quick look at our Community Compass Interactive Interviews. Provided by our ICIE project, these are virtual conversations with agencies and partners across the state. The aim is to connect youth with disabilities (aged 10-24) and their families with the information and services they need to more effectively prepare for adulthood. It's all about exploring options, building skills and making the connections you need to succeed in work, school and life!

Just under a month to go to our 12th annual artAbility Showcase! And we're here to spotlight our final group of artists who will be featured at this year's event ...

Diane Hughes is finishing up her first year as an artAbility artist! Fun fact: her nickname is Queen Dee.

George Mason is another first time artAbility participant, and a fun fact about him is that his favorite holiday is Halloween!

Richard Hager has been participating in artAbility for two years. Richard also really likes cars.

Xavier Rebzowski has been attending artAbility for six years. When he's not making art, he loves to participate in Special Olympics bowling.

Grace Muller is another two-year artAbility participant. She really enjoys reading!

Stephanie Traver has been in artAbility for two years as well. She is also very involved in the Pullman Community where she is in the Spanish Club.

Join us on April 29 from 5-7 pm at the 1912 Center to view the artwork of these amazing artists. There will be light refreshments, an art sale (cash or check), community art project and more!

"I think as a person, it helped me develop more. Compassion towards people from different backgrounds, how to work with different people. How to communicate with people. I think I definitely grew as a person at the CDHD." -- Avery Pierce-Garnett, Special Education Teacher

Our CDHD student trainees work with people from all academic backgrounds, all abilities and all walks of life. Not only can this result in personal growth, but it also helps trainees gain universal communication skills that can be applied in any job.

This is definitely something that stood out to Avery Pierce-Garnett, former CDHD trainee, who sat down with us to talk about his top takeaways from his time at the Center. Stay tuned for more of Avery's story, coming soon.
