Ribbon cutting ceremony hosted by Rockford Chamber of Commerce.

ROCKFORD, ILL., USA, October 24, 2022 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Embassy Suites Rockford Riverfront is pleased to welcome the Project SEARCH Class of 2023 in a commencement ceremony on Tuesday, October 25, at 11:00 a.m. at Embassy Suites Rockford Riverfront. This complimentary event will feature a ribbon-cutting ceremony hosted by the Rockford Chamber of Commerce.

Project SEARCH is a one-year school-to-work transition program hosted by RAMP for students with disabilities housed entirely at Embassy Suites Rockford Riverfront. In partnership with Rockford Public Schools and IDHS, selected students to work in three internships over the year in combination with classroom instruction, goal setting, career exploration, and hands-on training through worksite rotations. The goal for each student is competitive employment in their home community, transferring the skills and work practices they have acquired and demonstrated at Project SEARCH.

According to Vinny Bucci, General Manager, Embassy Suites Rockford Riverfront:

“We are excited to continue our support of Project Search and their mission to provide a unique, business-focused work transition program. The combination of classroom, goal setting, and hands-on training in the different departments throughout our hotel creates a great atmosphere within the team. Last year, we hired a graduate who now works in our maintenance department. We look forward to this new year and new group of students; we hope to have the opportunity to add them to our team after graduation.”

The event will showcase speakers from the Rockford Chamber of Commerce, RAMP, Embassy Suites Rockford Riverfront, Illinois Department of Human Services, and RPS 205.
