VCU OT students were here on a visit

VCU occupational therapy students were writing an article for their class on brain injury and how it affects us. They came to the millhouse to observe and see how the millhouse works. After they write this article, they plan to have it published in a professional occupational therapy journal. They were very polite and asked very interesting questions. We wish them much luck in the future!

Positive Vibes Cafe

by Claire D.
I had a great time at Positive Vibe Cafe! I learned measuring, knife skills, kitchen sanitation, bussing tables, & a couple of simple recipes such as ice cream in a bag. I really enjoyed it. The people are very nice. I am sorry it ended on December 10. I wish it were at least a semester long. I graduated on December 10. I am so going to miss it, especially Amy Wells, Garth Larcen, & Max Larcen. I am not thinking of applying for a job there because it is so far from where I live, & CARE is unreliable; if I could afford it, I could use taxis for transportation & be able to work at Positive Vibe without a "tour of Richmond" (CARE) for transportation. The sanitizer we cleaned with is quaternary ammonium compound, a.k.a. Quats. I love the words quaternary & quats.
