Dear PTC Participants, Families and Stakeholders,
As some of you may have heard by now, beginning July 1, 2023, I will be taking a new position as a senior administrator within the RKS schools. Although in this new position I will no longer be directly working with PrimeTime Center, due to the close connection of the schools and PTC, I will always make myself available for assistance with the PTC program whenever it is needed. I am extremely excited to announce that effective July 1, Blanche Stetler will be taking over as PrimeTime Center Director. Blanche has worked with PrimeTime Center since its inception in 2012 as our parent liaison. She has been the lifeblood of our organization and if not for Blanche’s initiative and commitment to the program, PrimeTime Center would not be the success that it is today. Both Blanche and I want to assure everyone that this transition will be seamless. Blanche and I have worked closely together for over a decade and there will be no unexpected changes to the PrimeTime Center program that everyone has come to know and love.
On a personal note, it has been an absolute pleasure working with the staff, participants, and families of the PrimeTime Center organization for the last 11 years. With the unwavering support of our owners, Ruth Reinhard and Jean Stack, the journey from opening a program with 2 participants and helping it grow to 200 participants has been life changing. There are so many people to thank that have helped along the way that I wouldn’t know where to begin. The hard work and dedication of all the PrimeTime Center staff throughout the years in developing a nurturing, community-based program in which individuals are able to make choices, develop their independence and live their lives to the fullest has been unparalleled. Moreover, I am extremely grateful for all of the cooperation, support and generosity of our PTC families over the years, especially throughout an unprecedented pandemic. The proverb “It takes a village” has never been more evident. And for our PTC participants I leave you with timeless words from Walt Disney, “All of our dreams can come true; if we have the courage to pursue them.”
If you have any questions about anything at all, please don’t hesitate to reach out to Blanche or myself at (888) 258-5271 or [email protected]. Thank you so much to my PTC family.
Sincerely,
Dave Mock
