Representatives from the Viscardi Center in Albertson came to Albany to visit state Assemblyman Anthony D’Urso.
The Viscardi Center provides training to adolescents and adults who have any disability (cognitive, physical, learning or developmental) so that they will be prepared to work and become self-reliant.
The school was started by Dr. Henry Viscardi Jr. to enable children with physical disabilities and rare illnesses to go school and learn just like other children.
“I am glad that these students have a supporting place to learn,” said D’Urso, “and they will have opportunities to work and be independent.”
