When you meet Leroy Woods, you immediately notice his shiny, amber-color earring, his fast and easy smile, and his twinkling eyes. All that sparkle perfectly complements his outgoing and energetic personality. It’s easy to imagine him in his role as recreation assistant for Quantum LEAP, encouraging consumers with developmental disabilities to get up, get going, and reach their fitness and socialization goals. Now a LEAP staffer, Woods was a LEAP consumer himself not that long ago. As a participant in the Job Link program he was encouraged to stretch and reach his own life goals.
Four LEAP staff members will attend the second Alliance for Full Participation (AFP) Summit, “Real Jobs—It’s Everyone’s Business,” Nov. 17 and 18 in Washington, D.C. The summit will focus on an ambitious goal set in 2009: to double the employment of people with disabilities in integrated settings by 2015. As part of the newly formed Ohio AFP team, “LEAP is getting in on the ground floor, being part of new initiative for the employment of people with disabilities. We will be bringing back knowledge that will help shape Ohio policy,” said Melanie Hogan, executive director of LEAP.
