PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES WILL RISE TO THE OCCASION
WHEN GIVEN THE OPPORTUNITY TO LEAD WE NEED TO HAVE THE COURAGE TO MAKE THOSE OPPORTUNITIES HAPPEN Being a trainer has really given me more confidence
and strength and I feel like a role model for other
individuals supported through our organization. " " Jennifer L., AAA Trainer The best part of AAA for me is becoming such
a part of a team with the Trainer. I love being there
every step of the way. I think this was needed
a long time ago and I am happy this is finally here. " " Lisa M., AAA Helper I think the AAA training was rewarding and awesome…
best thing to happen! This was my second time and it
was good learning for me. It brings out the best in me.
I get to meet people who are pleasant. " " Phillip N., Participant
