CONGRATULATING THE NATIONAL CENTER FOR DISABILITY SERVICES
______
HON. GARY L. ACKERMAN
of new york
in the house of representatives
Tuesday, September 19, 1995
Mr. ACKERMAN. Mr. Speaker, I rise to salute the National Center for Disability Services, which is located in Alberston, NY. The National Center for Disability Services is a recipient of the U.S. Department of Labor's 1995 Epic Award, in recognition of its formidable success in assisting corporate America recruit and employ individuals with disabilities.
For over 40 years, this facility has demonstrated that people with disabilities can participate fully in our society if given the opportunity. This center provides a comprehensive array of services for people with disabilities, including a school for children, and career evaluation, training and placement services for adults.
Mr. Speaker, I ask all of my colleagues in the House of Representatives to join me now in congratulating Edmund L. Cortez, the center's president and chief executive officer, along with his entire staff, for this remarkable achievement.
