LIMA, OH (WLIO) - Today, the Kiwanis Club of Lima held their meeting this afternoon with a special guest speaker from the Apollo Career Center's Project SEARCH program.
Leigh Taylor, who is the instructor and coordinator at Project SEARCH, stopped by the Lima Kiwanis Club to shed light on her program and its importance. She also shared how she and others at Project SEARCH work towards their goal of providing students with disabilities with the skills and experience necessary to transition them into the workforce through an individualized education plan.
"We like our students to know that the community wants them to come work for them. And so, getting the community involved and coming to Kiwanis and speaking to all the people here, it's really good to get that word out to understand who we are and when they see that on their resume and understand that they gotten great skills and experience, they will see that the students will be great here," explained Leigh Taylor, instructor and coordinator for Project SEARCH.
Graduation is around the corner for the senior interns at Project SEARCH. The event will be held on the May 17th at the Lima Civic Center.
