Hizzonor, Maurice Snell

In all the excitement of meeting White Sox players last week, and going to that White Sox game, I forgot to mention one very important thing in my post about Autism Awareness Month.
Chicago Mayor Richard M. Daley came to Easter Seals Metropolitan Chicago on April 23! The mayor held a press conference about job opportunities for individuals living with disabilities. The goal is to possibly create more programs in the Chicago area that will feature continuing work for many different clients.
Even though the Therapeutic School and Center for Autism Research currently has the Adult Vocational Program, there are still more faces out there that need more in their life. I just want to add that it was a good pleasure of meeting Mayor Daley once again.
PS: Unfortunately, I did not ask the mayor how Chicago is doing on our Olympic Bid. I was afraid that I may be the scapegoat of destroying our chances (LOL).
