Technology at Imagine!

Since the launch of the Technology Initiative, Imagine! services have seen an uptick in creative activities and technology usage. Imagine!’s CORE/Labor Source (CLS) department teaches an Assistive Technology class several times a week and has incorporated a couple of neat concepts to the classes:
Virtual Reality

Along with simulating recreational experiences, Reality Garage plans to build Imagine! a virtual job site later this year. This will provide clients with a virtual workspace to practice job skills and tasks before actually stepping foot into the workplace.
Apple Store Field Trip
Assistive Technology Program Supervisor Meagan Little works at our CLS site in Longmont and has played a large role in turning fun ideas into these tangible activities and meaningful classes. “Technology is a big part of my life, and I want to assist the individuals we serve in having the same experiences,” said Meagan. Instructors Erin Schram and Zoe Rolfe have played important roles as well.
Just as modern technology is always evolving, so will the Technology Initiative at Imagine!. Stay tuned for updates as we continue to integrate technology into Imagine! services, all while creating a world of opportunity for all abilities.

Meagan Little - Imagine! Longmont CORE/Labor Source Employee Spotlight
Today we’d like to recognize Imagine! employee Meagan Little, who works at our Longmont CORE/Labor Source (CLS) site.
Meagan has been going above and beyond working so hard to get the supportive technology set up through the new CLS building and helping other staff learn how to use this tech. She is always working on something, whether it's building partnerships with other companies (iPad classes) or trying to help a participant get recognition for her writing. If Meagan is available and notices that someone needs a break, she will always step in and take over, insisting that we take a break. She is an invaluable member of this team and we can't imagine what CORE/LS would be like without her dedication.

Christine McCaslin - Imagine! Excellence in Customer Service Award
Congratulations are in order for Christine McCaslin, recently selected as a recipient of the Imagine! Excellence in Customer Service Award.
Christine provides outstanding support to Imagine!’s Family Support Services Program (FSSP) as an accounting clerk. Christine generates the FSSP grant checks for our program, a task the families we serve would agree is most important. Christine's timeliness and attention to detail is vital to this process, as is the flexibility she displays, be it rescheduling check day due to holidays or re-issuing a shredded grant check at a family's request. It is truly a pleasure working with Christine!
