Six area high school students will sign their letters of intent for the Project SEARCH program at Mary Lanning Healthcare in April.
The signing day event for the 2025-26 program will be Thursday, April 17, at 12:30 p.m. at MLH in Conference Room 1, located on the Ground Floor.
Project SEARCH, a one-year work training program, started at MLH in fall 2001. Eighty percent of student participants remain working in some form of employment.
During the 2025-26 school year, students who sign up will be trained to work in various jobs at MLH. Participants are students at Hastings, Adams Central, Kenesaw and Doniphan-Trumbull schools.
The program is a partnership among MLH, Educational Service Unit 9, Vocational Rehabilitation Services and the Department of Health and Human Services.
