PRS is pleased to announce that three grants have been received in the past month to support PRS’ Adult Education Program. We have been advised that PRS has been chosen to receive funding from the McLean Citizens Foundation, the Tiger Woods Foundation and the Coalition for Northern Virginians with Mental Disabilities. These generous donations will provide a teacher from the Fairfax County Public Schools who specializes in Adult and Disability Education for both of our Day Program sites. Teaching people with serious mental illness requires a specialized and individualized approach and many PRS clients are unable to access traditional educational services. Participation in PRS’ Adult Education classes helps our clients resume their interrupted education and can lead to attaining a GED. It also allows for cognitive rehabilitation.
PRS extends heartfelt thanks to these generous donors!
