Description
Funded by a grant from the Vermont Developmental Disabilities Council, the ambitious goal of the Vermont is my Home production is to increase the general public’s understanding of people with developmental disabilities as members of our communities.
After high school, Nicole LeBlanc remained in her rural town and was isolated due to the lack of public transportation, work and educational opportunities. Nicole is a now a student in the SUCCEED program, a collaboration between the Howard Center and the University of Vermont. She has moved into her own apartment and travels frequently as a regional and national advocate for people with autism.
