Transition Partnership Program (TPP) Beginning-of-the-Year Meeting 09/25/2018 8:00 am - 1:00 pm The registration will begin at 8:00 a.m. and the meeting will start promptly at 8:30 a.m.
The Transition Partnership Program, WorkAbility I Program (WA1), Employment Network, California Career Innovations (CCi), California PROMISE (CaPROMISE), and WIOA GenerationGo! invite participants to attend a presentation by Mark Goffeney, an American musician from San Diego, CA, who was born without arms, but learned to play a guitar with his feet. Although he was excited to receive his first guitar as a gift from his father, he faced the challenge of strumming one string at a time. Mark would soon learn to overcome this challenge and learn to play the guitar professionally. Mark will share his stories and how to advocate for "self" as a person with a disability.
Several breakout sessions will be available for participants to select during the meeting.
