Daniel, age 22
Easter Seals New Jersey
Daniel first arrived at Easter Seals in July of 2007. Today, he attends the program Monday through Friday and takes part in various activities geared towards improving his socialization skills and maximizing his abilities. He enjoys working on puzzles and art projects, and, like most young men, Daniel is passionate about basketball and other sports. In fact, he has been training for the Special Olympics.
At 22, Daniel can be seen shaking hands with his peers, smiling, and helping someone at Easter Seals Adult Training Day Program. Daniel doesn't let his autism stop him from volunteering in his community. Every Monday, Daniel serves at the Fiesta Banquet Hall where he helps pack leftover food for delivery to the homeless people in the area.
