Twenty years ago, Rodney was diagnosed with Cone Rod Dystrophy—a degenerative disease that causes the retina to deteriorate to the point of blindness. There is currently no treatment or cure for this disease. By age 35 he could no longer drive or operate heavy equipment, ending his construction career. Then, Rodney found Goodwill. The Meridian Goodwill store in Idaho has given him an opportunity to work and build leadership skills. He is currently working as a production associate and credits the management team with his success. “Management is great here. They understand my situation and still give me opportunities. It is teamwork all the time. Brenda is a great manager. She is easy to talk to and is always there for anything that I need,” says Rodney. Learn more about Rodney and the opportunities he has found at Goodwill at www.esgw.org/meet-rodney. #GoodwillWeek

This week, Easterseals-Goodwill joined leaders and supporters from across the Goodwill Industries International and Easterseals networks on Capitol Hill to advocate for the people we serve. Our President/CEO, Mark Sherman, and our Public Policy Officer, Mitch Tropila met with elected officials and their staff from our four-state region to discuss workforce development, universal charitable deduction, and other issues critical to our communities. They met with Sen Tester (pictured below), Sen Daines, and Rep Zinke (pictured below) from Montana; Sen Crapo and Sen Risch from Idaho; and Sen Romney, Rep Moore, and Rep Owens from Utah. It was an honor to engage in these meaningful conversations aimed at fostering positive change! Kendra E. Davenport, MPL, Easterseals President/CEO (pictured below) Steven C.
