It was another successful field trip to Novartis for Disability Mentoring Day (DMD) on October 10th. There were lots of interactive events for the students to participate in while on the beautiful corporate campus. Students attended a job/college fair, learned more about the benefits of being mindful, and were inspired by the Keynote Speaker, Scott Chesney. Scott has dedicated his life to helping others with disabilities overcome obstacles and believe in in themselves after suffering through a rare stroke at the age of 15 that left him paralyzed. He has spoken to over one million people in 40 countries, motivating them to live their lives to the fullest.
It was a great day full of smiles and we returned to Calais feeling positive and inspired!
