Businesses and agencies partner with the Life Bridges program to ensure team members have every opportunity to meet their goals. Commu- nity partners are a “critical” component of the Life Bridges program, as they assist in teaching potential employees to serve their community in a productive manner, Martella said. Team members participate in a wide range of activities designed to enhance their independent living skills. They learn how to budget, cook, complete job applications, shop and more. They are also taught appropriate work behaviors and how to apply their reading and math skills in real-life situations, Martella said. On average, 90% of Life Bridges graduates go on to full- and part-time jobs and certication programs, and are prepared to live inde- pendently. A key component of the program is preparing team members to successfully partici- pate in local Individualized Skills and Socializa- tion, day activity and programs, Martella said.
“This facility is equipped to provide learning spaces and opportunities that will have a lifelong impact on the team members as they graduate from this program.” COURTNEY BIASATTI, CISD BOARD OF TRUSTEES PRESIDENT
“This would not be possible without our local businesses and our agencies that work hand in hand with us, each and every day.” JOHN E. CHAPMAN III, CISD SUPERINTENDENT
