For Valentine's Day, we asked our participants and their families to "share the love" to let our Direct Support Professionals know how much they are appreciated. We received many heartwarming messages. Here are a few.
Brothers Are Dedicated Employees
For the past two years, brothers William and Charles Wagner have worked at St John’s Vianney Regional School through Via’s Small Group Employment Services with their job coach, Peter Diehl. The Wagner brothers and Peter have developed a great professional and personal relationship. William and Charles are passionate about their jobs and are so dedicated that they have never called out of work!
 
Recently, William and Charles learned new techniques and how to use new cleaning products. They took these changes in stride and mastered their job tasks. Peter said, “William is positive and cheerful, and Charles takes pride in his work."
 
Via has several solutions for businesses to help meet their goals. Whether you are looking for dedicated employees like William and Charles, or have a job that needs to be completed, Via is here for you.
