Hey, hey, hey, everyone! It’s a new week, and it’s a positive day! Enjoy every moment of it!

What did we do today? Mr. Chris gave us a great worksheet about résumés. That was our task after our morning daily routines. He gave us examples of résumés, which helped us learn how to write our own. After the daily newspapers, we had a little bit exercise.

Meanwhile, Uncle Emet and his trainers were ready to head out for their tasks in our neighboring area.

Chef Ignacio and his crew were also busy preparing the lunch menu—Keema Aloo (ground beef and potatoes). It was a delicious meal.

Happy Tuesday, everyone! 🌞😊
Today, our consumers were in for a very special treat. Before the fun began, they completed their daily morning routine, read the newspaper, and shared stories about their weekends. They also got their bodies moving with an energetic Zumba session led by our very own Shirlyn. 💃🎶

Later on, the amazing Saipan Dynamic Lions Club stopped by to host lunch for everyone. The consumers enjoyed a delicious meal of red rice, beef steak, and fried chicken, topped off with a tasty cookie from Great Harvest. 🍛🍗🍪 Thank you so much to the Lions Club for your generosity and support! 💙👏

After lunch we hopped into PEER Support, the consumers watched an important video about personal hygiene and the importance of self care and proper handwashing. 🧼🖐️Following that, some of the boys helped with yard cleaning while others had fun playing bingo and ping pong. 🌱🎯🏓

Awesome job, team! 🌟 Let’s keep up the great work and positive energy! 💪✨

We started Monday off with Mr. Chris taking attendance, hearing what we did over the weekend, and reading the newspaper. Later on we did independent living skills training and everyone was working hard.

For lunch we got visited by Saipan Dynamic Lions Club. They treated us with lunch meals bento boxes, oat meal cookies 🍪 and bread 🥖 from Great Harvest. A big thank you for their kindness and dancing with us! Saipan Dynamic Lions Club

Good evening, everyone!🌸

It’s Thursday, which means I will let you know about our events today. Let’s start our lovely morning—we took our attendance first before Mr. Chris gave us a daily newspaper update on what’s happening around the world.

After reading the newspaper, we went on a field trip in two-day rotations. It was the Tuesday and Thursday group’s turn to go on a field trip. This month’s scheduled visit was to NMTech, where we learned more about the school. They offer classes to the community, similar to NMC. If you're interested and Call (670) 235-6684 or visit their campus today!

A big thank you to NMTech for having us for two days. We had a fantastic time touring your amazing place. NMTech 🫡

Adai yan and Tirow, everyone!

It’s nice to see you all today. We hope you all had fantastic holidays!

For our first outing of 2026, we went on a field trip to NM Tech. It was a fun tour around the NM Tech building. Mr. Leo walked us through and showed us different classrooms.

The first class he took us to was Electricity & Electronicmel. We had a chance to meet the instructor, who gave us feedback about the class. Every class we visited was really interesting.

We also visited Core Fundamentals, Culinary & Baking, Automotive, Heavy Equipment, and Welding

We had chicken curry with carrots and potatoes. It was a delicious lunch.

After DPS, we moved on to our ILS training. It was a successful day, and our center got a clean-up, looking like a new, shiny building. With the new year almost here, we’re doing our best to get everything looking nice.

Today marks the final day of Phase One of the TECHPIECS program! 🎉💻✨

For the past three weeks, our participants have been coming to CLI every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday to build valuable skills needed for employment. 📚🙌 They showed up, worked hard, and gave it their all each day!

We had the chance to interview a few of our participants, and we loved hearing their thoughts and experiences along the way. 💬💙 Their growth and dedication have been truly inspiring!

A huge thank you to everyone who was part of this program. We are so proud of all you have accomplished and excited for what comes next! 🌟👏😊
