During its 2009 session, the Virginia General Assembly adopted Senate Joint Resolution 321 designating October as Disability History and Awareness Month in Virginia and calling upon the Governor "to encourage the people of the Commonwealth, including public schools, institutions of higher education, the business and corporate community, civic and advocacy organizations, the faith community, and other interested entities, through education and other appropriate activities, programs, and events to promote and highlight Disability History and Awareness Month in Virginia."? ? In the resolution, the General Assembly also recognized the efforts of alumni of the Youth Leadership Forum (YLF), sponsored by the Virginia Board for People with Disabilities, whose advocacy efforts prompted the legislature's action.? Following passage of the resolution, those YLF alumni, with support from parents, teachers, and the Virginia Board, the Partnership for People with Disabilities at Virginia Commonwealth University, the Virginia Department of Education's Division of Special Education and Student Services, and the Technical Assistance and Training Center at Radford University, developed a bank of resources to increase students' understanding and awareness and to support development of activities to commemorate Disability History and Awareness Month in their schools and communities.? ?

His plans to skip town with the cash are foiled when he falls for Marian the librarian, who transforms him into a respectable citizen by curtain's fall. This award-winning, critically acclaimed Broadway classic is an all-American institution, thanks to is quirky characters, charmingly predictable dramatic situations, and one-of-a-kind, nostalgic score of rousing marches, barbershop quartets and sentimental ballads which have become popular standards. By turns wicked, funny, warm, romantic and touching, 'The Music Man' is family entertainment at its best.

STATE VOCATIONAL REHABILITATION PROGRAM NOW ABLE TO SERVE ADDITIONAL CLIENTS? "STIMULUS" FUNDS ENABLE OPENING OF ADDITIONAL "ORDER OF SELECTION" CATEGORY? ? In April 2009, the Virginia Department of Rehabilitative Services (DRS) opened its top category (individuals with most significant disabilities) under its Vocational Rehabilitation (VR) Program's Order of Selection policy because of "stimulus" funds received from the federal American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA).? As of October 1, 2009, DRS has now opened its second highest category for individuals with significant disabilities with two serious functional limitations (SD-2).? DRS will be notifying the 900+ SD-2 waiting list individuals that they may be served and asking them to schedule an appointment with their VR counselor if they still need VR services to become or stay employed.? In addition, new applicants who meet DRS eligibility and SD-2 criteria will also be served.? ? The last two Order of Selection categories (significantly disabled with one serious functional limitation and non-significantly disabled) will remain closed until such time that DRS has sufficient funds to provide individuals in those categories with services under an Individualized Plan for Employment.? New applications in these categories will continue to be placed on the waiting list for services and referred to the Virginia Workforce Centers and other community resources for assistance to help them obtain employment.? They, however, may receive diagnostic and assessment services to help determine their VR eligibility and their serious functional limitations.? in some instances, these services may be provided at the Woodrow Wilson Rehabilitation Center (WWRC) if the client meets WWRC's admission criteria and can benefit from WWRC's services.? In addition, DRS policy allows these "wait-listed" individuals to receive certain "no cost" services (i.e. use of DRS Employment Resource Centers, attending job clubs, notifications of job openings) provided by their counselor or other VR staff if they want and need these services.? ?

An affectionate paean to Smalltown, U.S.A. of a bygone era, "The Music Man" follows Harold Hill as he cons the people of River City, Iowa into buying instruments and uniforms for a boys' band he vows to organize - this despite the fact he doesn't know a trombone from a treble clef. His plans to skip town with the cash are foiled when he falls for Marian the librarian, who transforms him into a respectable citizen by curtain's fall. This award-winning, critically acclaimed Broadway classic is an all-American institution, thanks to is quirky characters, charmingly predictable dramatic situations, and one-of-a-kind, nostalgic score of rousing marches, barbershop quartets and sentimental ballads which have become popular standards. By turns wicked, funny, warm, romantic and touching, "The Music Man" is family entertainment at its best. The production features David Brown as Harold Hill and Amy Stevens as Marian Paroo. Christine Britton plays Mrs. Paroo, Marian's mother; and Jacob Marshall plays Winthrop Paroo, Marion's brother. Doug Stewart plays Marcellus Washburn, a former traveling salesman and friend of Harold's. Trey Shinault plays Charlie Cowell, a rival salesman who has it in for Harold. The cast also includes Paul Carroll and Lisa Roberts as Mayor George Shinn and his wife Eulalie Mackecknie Shinn and Kara Hunter and Kelsie Hogge as their daughters, Zaneeta and Gracie. Hunter Royall plays Tommy Djilas, the young man from the wrong side of the tracks who is seeing Zaneeta.
