TYLER B. FINDS HIS DREAM JOB THROUGH THE DISCOVERY PROGRAMIn December 2018, less than 2 months after joining IECBS, Tyler was selected and authorized to participate in the Discovery program. As a part of the Discovery process, Job Developer, Quiana Price took Tyler out to a few Informational Interviews. When they arrived at LOL Kids Club – located in the Ontario Mills Mall – the manager of the restaurant took an immediate interest in Tyler’s energy, magnetic smile and positive attitude. He was hired on the spot. Tyler shared that the Discovery Program “was very helpful by breaking down my interest to help me find a job suited for me”. When asked what activities he’s enjoyed the most so far, he responded “going to different locations and exploring the different job opportunities a place has”. While Tyler will tell you he misses the friends he made in IECBS and is thinking about re-joining for the socialization aspects on his days off, he loves his job, loves working with the children and takes his position very seriously. We are happy for Tyler and congratulate him on his success!

Miguel joined the Anthesis Work Program in September 2014. In March 2015, he became a member of Supported Employment. His initial assignment was at 3 Way Thrift and then he transferred to one of the FSC Lighting enclaves in 2016 with an amazing determination to succeed. Miguel performed many tasks at FSC and learned many skills. Anthesis is proud to announce that Miguel is now working as a direct employee at a warehouse in Chino. Even though he will be missed, there was never a doubt he would move on and be successful. All the best to you, Miguel!

’RASS participants and Senior Companions had a perfect day at the ball park supporting the Rancho Cucamonga Quakes. From catching souvenir t-shirts, autographed baseballs and even just chowing down on hot dogs, popcorn, and soda pop, we couldn’t have asked for a better day. Michael D. Jumps for joy with his autographed ball from one of the super star players. I think it’s safe to say our participants had a blast watching the boys in blue out on the field.

A group of adventurous program partici-pants from ADC took a trip to downtown Claremont to visit the Claremont Museum of Art. The museum was showcasing talent-ed elementary student’s masterpieces. The partcipants were so astonished with how creative they all were! And on the way out, they each got a chance to pick out their very own post card to remember their awesome day! Without a doubt, ADC will be putting this trip back on their list!
