Dozens of families benefit from VoiceNation’s “Operation Give Back”

Caitlin Redd and Alea Pizzaro of the VoiceNation team wrap gifts for 65 children.
Caitlin Redd and Alea Pizzaro of the VoiceNation team wrap gifts for 65 children.

VoiceNation, the industry leader in live answering and virtual receptionist services, made the holidays brighter for 27 local families through their “Operation Give Back” outreach program.

Now in its fourth year, Operation Give Back is the name given to VoiceNation’s outreach effort to help ensure local children living in shelters and those in need of assistance receive gifts during the holiday season.

VoiceNation worked with Jackson County Family Connection in Jefferson and Georgia CALLS in Buford to provide holiday gifts for 65 children, ranging in age from three months to 17 years old. The gifts included BMX bicycles, arts and crafts, clothes, shoes and many different toys.

How it Works

VoiceNation receives referrals from agencies that are working with families in need. VoiceNation provided their employees with funds to purchase gifts along with Operation Give Back profile folders of the children in need, which include the child’s age, gender, holiday wish list and preferences, such as their favorite color, clothing size, favorite activities, and hobbies.

“Many participants in Georgia CALLS’ re-entry program are working hard to become CEOs of their own lives and to do better by their families, but are still in need of assistance. They are amazed at the outpouring of support from anonymous donors,” explained Mark Mobley, Executive Director of Georgia CALLS.

“Our Operation Give Back program has become a highly sought after volunteer initiative here at VoiceNation. As our staff learns about the children in need, they feel a connection to them and are incredibly enthusiastic about the gifts they purchase for them,” explained Jay Reeder, the company’s president. “Operation Give Back is a tremendous opportunity to support children and families in need within our community while spreading holiday cheer.”

VoiceNation’s Employee Volunteer Program provides ample opportunity for every staff member to volunteer and work towards a cause they feel passionate about on a local, national, or global scale.

Waltham Accountant Places in Top Quarter of World’s Toughest Mudder Competition

Justin Horr and Nicole Perry
Justin Horr and Nicole Perry

With the same grit and determination required during tax season, Justin Horr, Staff Accountant at Rodman & Rodman CPAs, a full service tax and accounting firm catering to small and medium-sized companies throughout the greater Boston area, completed the World’s Toughest Mudder® 24-hour race held November 14-15th at Lake Las Vegas, Nevada.

Placing 219 overall among approximately 1280 participants, Horr did well in the Male Division 20-24 year-old, placing 9th and completing 10 laps, 50 miles total in 24 hours, 28 minutes and 4 seconds. He was among 28 male and female contestants from Massachusetts.

Horr, a resident of South Easton, MA and native of Granby, CT, competed alongside his aunt, Nicole Perry of Simsbury, CT, who finished 4th in her age group.

World’s Toughest Mudder is an extreme 24-hour obstacle course challenge where athletes are tested to their physical and mental limits competing for Worlds Toughest Mudder title and prizes, while also fundraising for a charity or cause.

“This race, at this magnitude, required a lot of preparation. You have to be ready to tackle different challenges. The course changes in the middle of the night, and you have to adapt,” explained Horr. “It’s almost as stressful as tax season – which is a marathon, not a sprint – where you have to be mentally prepared.”

Horr will be participating in Tough Mudder New England and Spartan Sprint Race in 2016.

Center for Applied Behavioral Instruction (CABI) Receives Official Massachusetts Private School Accreditation

Dr. Jeffrey Robinson
Dr. Jeffrey Robinson

WORCESTER, MA…

The Center for Applied Behavioral Instruction (CABI) announced today that it has received its provisional license to operate as an approved private day school from the Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education. This school is a new option for students with autism spectrum disorder and challenging behaviors who have persistent difficulties within their public schools in Central Massachusetts. As a result of the recent licensing and approval status, the school is now accepting applications for students ages 6 through 22 who reside in communities within a one hour radius of Worcester.

Jeffrey Robinson, Ph. D. and Brian Doyle, Ed.D., BCBA-D are the founders and directors of the school with over 60 years of cumulative autism and ABA experience. “CABI opened as an unapproved school approximately one year ago after having received the approval of the Worcester School Committee.,” said CABI Executive Director Dr. Jeffrey Robinson. “We take pride in providing the highest quality of individualized educational services to our students. We believe that every child has a unique potential to learn and are steadfastly committed to maximizing each student’s potential.”

This new private school was created to address the needs of an underserved population of students by offering an educational option utilizing scientifically based educational treatment for children and young adults with significant educational and behavioral needs. “It’s really the magnitude of the behavioral challenge that will distinguish the students that come to our school,” said Robinson. “Many have been successfully integrated in traditional schools, but some children exhibit significantly interfering behaviors which make it difficult to safely maintain them in a public school.”

The CABI is located at 345 Greenwood Street in Worcester, MA. More information about the school can be found on the Center for Applied Behavioral Instruction’s website at http://www.cabiautism.org or by calling the school directly at (508) 363-0201.

The Talk of the Towns. Talking Information Center Announces Speaker’s Bureau

James Bunnell, Executive Director
James Bunnell, Executive Director

The award-winning Talking Information Center (TIC), a non-profit reading service located in Marshfield, MA which broadcasts 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, to thousands of print and visually impaired listeners, has recently established a Speaker’s Bureau.

James Bunnell, TIC’s newly appointed Executive Director along with several volunteer ambassadors are available to speak about a wide range of topics to various audiences – from business and fraternal organizations to civic groups. Potential topics include:

The talk of the towns– Less than five percent of people who are blind can read Braille. Thus, TIC, serving the entire Bay State and its border states, is crucial to its audience. The numerous reasons why vision and print impaired people need a special radio station and the type of timely content that TIC delivers that is not otherwise available to the sight impaired are discussed.

Shifting demographics – In addition to programs for the print and visually impaired, TIC sees an enormous need to expand programming and distribution to the fast growing senior and veteran populations. Baby boomers are graying and in need of new services. According to Bunnell, “Approximately 10,000 people turn 65 every day in the U.S. and in Massachusetts, 34 percent of people with disabilities are 65 and older.” Military veterans are seeking more programs that have a “veteran’s voice”. TIC is developing new programming to engage, entertain and enlighten their growing audience of boomers and veterans.

Listeners celebrate over 35 years – TIC recently celebrated its 35th anniversary. More than 20,000 listeners statewide and beyond appreciate the TIC link to the world. And there is a broader audience waiting to be reached. It is estimated that 150,000 in Massachusetts are unable to read the printed word. The vision impaired face challenges of literary, maintaining independence, unemployment (70 percent) and paralyzing isolation. Two out of three aging Americans confront vision loss. Others who experience vision problems are living with AIDS, cerebral palsy, multiple sclerosis, stroke, paralysis and other physical ailments that make it difficult to hold a publication or turn its pages. TIC continues to reach out to engage more of those who can benefit from the service.

Volunteers get the word out– With a rigorous 24/7 schedule, a modest budget and only five full time staff, TIC has hundreds of volunteers who tirelessly assist with programming as readers and engineers. Thoroughly trained to provide the best possible production, volunteers range in age and profession, and serve from studios and affiliate stations. Each region has a variety of compelling stories about volunteers and what inspires them to shed light for others.

“Our mission is to broadcast information to inspire, motivate and empower the print impaired community. With the growing number of seniors and veterans seeking informational, entertaining broadcasts that just aren’t available elsewhere, we’re developing programming specific to these new audiences,” noted Bunnell.

Volunteer Ambassadors Needed

TIC is currently seeking additional volunteers to serve on their speaker’s bureau. Volunteer ambassadors would be responsible for attending senior fairs, fraternal organization meetings and actively seeking additional opportunities to speak on TIC’s behalf.

To arrange a speaking engagement or to learn more about becoming a TIC volunteer ambassador, contact James Bunnell at 800-696-9505.

About TIC

The Talking Information Center (TIC), a non-profit reading service located in Marshfield, MA, broadcasts 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, to visually-impaired and print-handicapped listeners including those suffering from AIDS, Cerebral Palsy, Multiple Sclerosis, stroke, paralysis or other physical illness that makes holding a publication or turning pages impossible. TIC programming may be accessed by specially tuned radio receivers or via live audio stream on the TIC website, www.ticnetwork.org.

In 1977, Ed Perry, the founder of radio station WATD-FM in Marshfield, MA, donated his Subsidiary Carrier Authorization signal for use as the first radio reading service in New England. Now reaching 25,000 listeners, TIC broadcasts newspapers, magazines, books, and special consumer information on subjects including medical and stock market updates, jobs, sports, supermarket specials, voting guides, community newspapers, and television programs. TIC also broadcasts cultural programming including old-time radio drama, theater, and poetry.

TIC is a proud member of the International Association of Audible Information Services (IAAIS), and is also the hub of the Massachusetts Reading Network, broadcasting to all of Massachusetts as well as southern New Hampshire and Connecticut. Operating similarly to other broadcast networks, TIC has affiliates throughout the state of Massachusetts that provide inserts of local news and information that is of interest to listeners in their area.

TIC is located at 130 Enterprise Drive, (P.O. Box 519), in Marshfield, MA 02050. For more information visit www.ticnetwork.org or call 800-696-9505.
