We've had a great couple of weeks kicking off Project SEARCH this year. In our orientation weeks, we have had a wide variety of events to get to know the layout of the hospital, some of the great people we will get to work with, and exploring potential internships. The interns participated in lots of hospital scavenger hunts, department tours and speakers, interviews, and some team building exercises. It's going to be a great year!

We had two birthdays we celebrated last week. Happy Birthday to CJ and Justyn!

You're Hired!!!!!!! Congratulations to Nathen Hovatter on earning his job at the University of Northern Iowa in the Rialto Dining Center. Sometimes in Project SEARCH we have interns that get into a rotation and something just clicks. That was true for Nathen when he began on the dishwashing side of Dining & Nutrition. Nathen found something that he had a passion for and really enjoyed. He was fortunate to find a job that was right up his alley. Congratulations Nathen! We're proud of you and know that you will do great! Waterloo Community School District UnityPoint Health - Waterloo Project SEARCH Inclusion Connection
