Team BAC had the "Wright Kind of Day" with a special visit from @Senator Tom Wright and @City of Rockledge - City Hall Manager, Dr. Brenda Fettrow at our Rockledge Headquarters! Thanks to the leadership of Senator Wright and State @Representative Thad Altman, we had the chance to advocate for the needs of our program participants and the entire Florida disability community during the 2024 Florida Legislative session. Senator Wright presented us with a grant that will provide crucial program support for individuals with disabilities, including ongoing vocational training. His continued advocacy for increased funding for BAC programs is greatly appreciated. A big thank you for supporting our request and championing our cause in Tallahassee! During their visit Senator Wright, his legislative assistant, and Dr. Fettrow met with many of our employees and participants, who eagerly shared their experiences and the work they do here at BAC.
