Welcome to the blog! We hope these posts give you a real sense of what goes on at BRSHF & why we do what we do, from the perspective of the staff. I thought it would be appropriate to begin with a quick anecdote from our Executive Director, Melissa Juneau, who shared this story with me today:
"It's exciting to mark the students' progress this time of year, as the spring session comes to a close. I saw a student in the parking lot this morning, and before I could speak to him, without any prompting from Mom, he shouted, 'Hi, Mrs. Melissa!'. This is from a child who wouldn't make eye contact in September. He's become like our resident greeter, saying hi to everyone by name as he walks down the hall in the mornings. His progress has been incredible, and it's not over yet! It is just wonderful to hear the chatter of little voices of kids in BRSHF's Therapeutic Language Center echoing down the hallways."
We hope to bring you more stories like this - little inspirations, huge breakthroughs, and other happy stories from the classrooms and hallways - and hope you enjoy reading them as much as we enjoy working with them!
