Congratulations to…
Jennifer Carpenter, Wayne Parker Advocate of the Year Award winner – “I was shocked at first, to be honest. I was very honored by receiving it. I will say that I am proud that somebody thought enough to recommend me for the STEP Wayne Parker Advocate Award and then to be chosen for it. This award is a pretty big deal, and I take pride in helping our families with disabilities and making that pathway a little bit easier for them as their children move on to life after high school.“
