Life Skills Interns Connect With Kids

Interns in the Life Skills Programs at two New Hampshire high schools are enriching the lives of residents at the Cedarcrest Center for Children with Disabilities.

For two summers now, the pediatric facility in Keene, NH has hosted a community-based vocational training program for five student interns from Monadnock Regional and Hinsdale high schools. The teens have various developmental disabilities.

For part of each day, Cedarcrest Center staff members mentored the interns in job-shadow rotations – in housekeeping, lawn care, environmental services, facility maintenance, food services and administrative services. Then the interns honed basic academic and workplace skills with tutors from their respective schools. For the remainder of each day, the interns interacted directly with children at Cedarcrest Center, reading to them individually or engaging them in a game or activity.
