Give a HUGE round of applause for Alex, who recently had the pleasure of starting an exciting new role in the The School District of Philadelphia!

Alex was hired as an Assistant Preschool Teacher, and he’s absolutely loving his new job. Just as importantly, he’s thriving in his new position:

“He’s doing a great job!” said Corene Contreni, Manager of Employment Training at CIS.

“His lead teacher says he’s wonderful, very attentive, and professional!”

Congratulations, Alex, on your new job, another great example of how employees with disabilities are thriving each day in workplaces around the region.
