Thanks for MGRS Participation in STRIVE Rocks

MGRS participated in Strive Rocks this past March and made a donation to the program. Strive serves tweens, teens and young adults with intellectual & emotional disabilities. For more information or to donate please visit https://www.pslstrive.org/



The STRIVE program of PSL Services is designed to address the many issues faced by tweens, teens, and young adults (ages 11-24) with developmental disabilities. Areas that we focus on include: improving fundamental academic skills, developing leadership potential, improving economic opportunities through continuing education, enhancing or upgrading work skills, integrating literary and social skills into occupational/vocational opportunities, fostering career opportunities through education and training, and promoting peer support for parents and siblings of this young population.

We received two notes of thanks.

Dear Maine Garden Railroad Society,
Thanks for your time and model building talents at STRIVE Rocks 2017!. Thanks to your help we raised over 86K during the weekend, enough to fund our next 12 months of programming for young adults with disabilities.
