The Life Skills Students from Bonita Middle School and the Millers were celebrating the two-year anniversary of the workshop's existence.

The workshop came to be after Lisa Cronin Miller was volunteering at a Bonita Springs Middle School dance which her daughter and the Exceptional Student Education class.

To Miller's astonishment, the ESE children were made fun of by other children attending the dance.

After that experience, Miller started the workshop, which educates the community about people who have physical, mental or learning disabilities through a hands-on, interactive program and has taught 4,000 people.
