Empowerment Beads to Support Haiti
in light of January's devastating earthquake in Haiti, Trollbeads is proud to offer a new set of Empowerment beads. Half of all proceeds from the sale of these beads will go to Habitat for Humanity to aid in stabilizing and rebuilding Haiti's infrastructure. Habitat has been working in Haiti for 26 years and is helping Haitians rebuild their homes and reclaim hope.
Stop in today to see these wonderful beads. The Empowerment Bead Program was created for the sole purpose of promoting charitable contributions through the Trollbeads dealer network. In order to embrace all wearers of bead bracelets in charitable giving, the beads are designed to fit not only Trollbeads bracelets, but all competitors bracelets as well.
Community Spotlight - Raleigh TEACCH!
TEACCH, a branch of the Carolina Institute for Developmental Disabilities at The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, is an evidence-based service, training, and research program for individuals of all ages and skill levels with autism spectrum disorders.
Established in the early 1970s by Dr. Eric Schopler and colleagues, the TEACCH program has worked with thousands of individuals with autism spectrum disorders and their families. TEACCH provides clinical services such as diagnostic evaluations, parent training and parent support groups, social play and recreation groups, individual counseling for higher-functioning clients, and supported employment. In addition, TEACCH conducts training nationally and internationally and provides consultation for teachers, residential care providers, and other professionals from a variety of disciplines. Research activities include psychological, educational, and biomedical studies. The Raleigh TEACCH Center serves individuals with autism in Johnston and Wake counties (with the exception of Apex, Cary and Morrisville which are served by the Chapel Hill TEACCH Center).
