| Corrections and More Congratulations to SAFE! |
| Monday, April 7, 2008 | In the web article about the Education Minnesota grant, we incorrectly labeled Lyla Peterson as a teacher, she is indeed a Licensed Social Worker. And, we omitted another key grant writer, Carol Welton, OTR. Carol was instrumental in using her 30 years experience as an Occupational Therapist to develop activities that would support students with FASD. Also the grant was written to support students with the medical diagnosis of FASD, but it will be implemented in the SAFE program at Hosterman, with students ranging from 7 years old to 18 years old. Thank you to Brad Wing, FASD Teacher who also supported the grant project for the clarifications. Congratulations SAFE Staff! More>> |
