  • Ministry of the Month - B.L.A.S.T.

    In January we will be supporting B.L.A.S.T food pantry as our Ministry of the Month. The B.L.A.S.T. program was designed to meet the needs of Exceptional Education Students (ESE) who are 18-22 years old. It focuses directly on transition opportunities and postsecondary goals of students who have deferred their diploma. This student driven/teacher led program strives to work toward a level of independence for every student in the four main domains of transition: Independent Living, Vocational and Employment, Personal and Social, and Recreation and Leisure. Members of the B.L.A.S.T. program participate in a variety of Brevard Public Schools' transition programs, Community Based Instruction, and Community Based Vocational Experiences. Members also participate fully in all aspects of developing and implementing a school-based enterprise. Through hands-on    learning centers and labs, members also gain knowledge and experience in a variety of independent living and self-determination skills. Young adults in the program will be encouraged to make choices, participate in work   experiences, interact with others in the community, strengthen their confidence level and develop their social and communication skills across all settings. Mission Statement "Supporting students as they transition to adult life with high expectations resulting in excellence for all."

  • A Thank You!!--Sweater Ministry

    A Thank You from Morrison County Social Services in Minnesota for the beautiful sweaters, ponchos, hats, etc. that the Sweater Ministry and the Crochet Crew created and sent at the end of last year: “We here at Morrison County extend our heartfelt thanks for your donation of knitted items. They went especially fast this year due to lack of donated coats for kids and the early cold weather we had. We appreciate your time and talent, but also thoughtfulness of choosing our agency each year! We appreciate your time and talent, but also thoughtfulness of choosing our agency each year!
