This morning, Battalion Chief Brooks and EMS Chief Wurster represented Minquas Fire Company at an appreciation breakfast held at the Chester County Intermediate Unit for participating in their CHAAMP program. This program allows students with disabilities to work in the community to enhance their skills and personal interactions. Minquas has had the pleasure of CCIU student Drew come to the firehouse every morning for several months to help with chores and checking the trucks. Beyond the help Drew has given the crews around the firehouse, he has also given us a new perspective on individuals with autism. Thank you to the CCIU for the opportunity to participate in this program and please contact them if interested in additional information.
