Tom Wigley introduced our speaker, Phil Oliver who told about
changes at the Capper Foundation since the last time he had visited with the
Club. The Capper Foundation is one of the organizations that our Club supports.
On Jan 1, 2012, Capper united with Individual Support Systems to provide provide
services to children, teenagers and adults with developmental and intellectual
disabilities. He spent time describing the training they provide adults to allow
them to obtain jobs in the community. It was also noted that people in the
community can have their small engines for mowers, etc, tuned and repaired as
well as their automobiles washed and vacuumed. This provides the people being
trained, real life experiences.
