Recognition for
handicapped kids
Do you know of a handicapped child who needs encouragvmen:' Have you ever wished there was a way to “officially” recognize the child for his or her achievements ’
Throughout the nation, handicapped and disabled children are working hard to overcome the tremendous obstacles that they face. Thousands of these special children are touched each year by the Foundation For Exceptional Children's “Yes, 1 Can!” program.
Established in 1981, “Yes, I Can!” was developed to recognize the outstanding achievements of handicapped and disabled youth. Through this campaign, the general public is encouraged to write to “Yes, I Can!” about the accomplishments of a handicapped child they know. In response to these letters, “Yes, I Can!" sends the children a certificate of achievement attesting to his or her accomplishments.
Those individuals who wrote to “Yes, I Can!” to nominate a child for a certificate of achievement are further. encouraged to fill out nomination papers so that their nominee may be considered for the “Yes, I Can!" awards program. Awards are given in five categories ranging from academics to community service.
