"Project SEARCH meant a lot to me because it helped me find my true dream job. Project SEARCH has done a wonderful job training me to become a first ever Pharmacy Team Assist. Without the training that I received from Project SEARCH, I would not have been given this opportunity to be hired at Mayo Clinic. I appreciate what Project SEARCH has done for me."
