💼 October is National Disability Employment Awareness Month!

This year’s theme, “Celebrating Value and Talent,” is a great reminder of what we see every day through Prosper Workforce Services: people with disabilities bring valuable skills, perspectives, and talents to the workplace.

Throughout October, we’ll be celebrating inclusive employment and the people making a difference at work every day! 👏

🎉 Today we’re celebrating FOUR YEARS of Holly at AAP!

Holly is our A-Team and Project Lifesaver Program Manager, but around here, her job description includes a little bit of everything. She keeps us organized, jumps in wherever she’s needed, and somehow always knows where everything is. 🙌

Most importantly, Holly has an incredible way of connecting with our A-Team participants, helping them feel comfortable, have fun, and form friendships along the way.

Creative, patient, organized, and always ready to lend a hand, Holly makes AAP a better place to be.

How lucky are we to have her?! Help us celebrate 4 years of Holly! 🎉
