The St. Joseph Writers Guild will be
meeting
this Saturday, March 15, at 1:00 p.m.
at the Joyce Raye Patterson
Senior Citizens Center
St. Joseph, Missouri.
The
program is a writer’s workshop. Please bring
some examples of your writing to share.
Also please share this information about an essay contest
on disability awareness:
20th Anniversary Disability Awareness
ESSAY CONTEST
This year marks MERIL’s 20th
Anniversary and we are proud to celebrate our existence and the services we
continue to provide many in our nine county region.
Writing is a
creative outlet for youth as well as adults. Youth often express effectively on
paper what they have difficulty saying aloud. This essay contest for Disability
Awareness gives area youth the opportunity to express their thoughts about
disability and how attitudes and actions affect people with disabilities. We
want to teach young adults and children that people with disabilities are the
same as everyone else. While there are many types of disabilities, it is
important that youth of all ages have a general understanding of disabilities
and how they should treat people with disabilities.
For more
information, please contact Deb Powers <debp@meril.org>
