There are so many things about this post to be happy about. First and foremost, Tamiah's smile! By all accounts, she's loving life as a housekeeping team member at Stonebridge Senior Living in Maryland Heights! Second, knowing that she just celebrated her SIX-MONTH work anniversary (along with another BCI client Sarah who works in dietary)! And finally, the wonderful email we received from Tayon, Manager of Stonebridge's HR Department, saying how "exceptional" (her words, not ours!) these ladies are and how lucky StoneBridge is to have them as part of their team! There's a place for everyone within our local workforce, and we're delighted that these employment opportunities are such a great match for Tamiah, Sarah, and the Stonebridge team! #DifferentAbilitiesOneWorkforce #AbilitesAtWork #CompetitiveIntegratedEmployment #DisabilityInclusion #DisabilityEmployment

When Tamika noticed a fellow employee struggling to keep up with production, she quickly realized the issue: he was right-handed but grabbing the product from the left. That's when she took the initiative to move the product to his right, making all the difference in helping him keep pace. Tamika takes pride in achieving goals on any line she works on and strives for excellence every day. Let's celebrate her dedication and her inspiring ability to uplift others! 👏💪 #MagicMoment #Leadership #Teamwork #Inspiration #Innovation

Production Supervisor Sheena gives Earl a big thumbs up for July's #QualityCatchOfTheMonth! Earl was packing bottles into shippers when he noticed two that had been shrink-wrapped by the manufacturer without caps. Way to go, Earl! #AbilitiesAtWork #ContractPackaging #CoPacking #Quality

Does summer fly or what?! Just like that we have our week 2 recap of our Nuts, Bolts & Thingamajigs (NBT) Inclusion Manufacturing Camp. It was a busy week as campers powered up with electrical 101, learning about conductors, insulators and circuits. All skills to be applied to there final projects, which started this week. Campers spent time preping pallets for a special build to be revealed in future posts...but let's just say they're about to turn em' up! The group toured one of the world's leaders in thermal solutions, Watlow. Campers were met with smiles, donuts, an exclusive facility tour AND were able to build their own cylinder heater side-by-side the Watlow production team. It was an unforgettable experience that left several campers wondering how to submit their application for employment! A special thanks to our Watlow leaders who provided real-world, hands-on exposure to our campers - that's what it's all about! Stay tuned for an upcoming week 3 recap as we progress on our projects and visit another premeir manufacturer. #Inclusion #Manufacturing #Disabilityemployment #InclusiveSummerCamp #ChangingParadigms #OpeningDoors #OurCampersHaveFun #SummerLearning
