This summer we shared a story about Chaz and the important and inspiring work he does in his community—organizing food drives, sitting on the board of five different organizations, and advocating in myriad ways for people with disabilities. Today, we’re over the moon to share that he landed an amazing job as an Activity Assistant at the Tucker House Nursing Home.

What makes this particularly sweet news to share is that the job allows Chaz to capitalize on his passion for helping others. In his new role, he gets to work firsthand with Tucker Home residents, help plan fun and engaging activities, and bring to the people there the same care, kindness, and selflessness he brings to his work in the community. 

We’re so proud to see Chaz’s patience and perseverance rewarded with the kind of job that anyone would hope for—one where you do what you love and you love what you do. Join us in congratulating Chaz, and head over to our blog to read more participant stories as we continue our celebration of National Disability Employment Awareness Month.
