The goals are not the same for each student, but we make it a point to give every young adult in the program the same opportunity,” Anna stated. “Sometimes they surprise themselves, and others, when they see just what they are capable of doing. We know that all of the students must be given a chance. There is no double standard for any of them,” Garalde concluded. “When the student begins to learn skills they perform at a different level. They sometimes get anxious over the accountability factor imposed on them and they are usually harder on themselves than the parents or teachers of the program,” stated Ed. “But our staff is attuned to their students and know the limitations and the capabilities, never pressuring anyone to do something they are hesitant about trying, encouraging along the way so the new skill can be accomplished. They do, however, give equal opportunities to all, with the understanding that the student can easily be disappointed or be anxious or nervous. We know, though, given a chance, they all want to be independent,” concluded Lynch. There are currently 23 students in the Mychal’s Learning Place Adult Path to Independence Program, 18 males and five females. There is a waiting list of 49 students. Lynch stated that Mychal’s programs are a model for programs in Hawaii and Osaka, Japan, and it is hoped that more Mychal’s Learning Places can be opened in other parts of the South Bay where there is a need for such services. Several local businesses have partnered with Mychal’s and allow for volunteer internships by the students who are ready to venture out to the workplace. Murad has one volunteer internship, and REI, ESMoA, and Modernica have signed up for internships, with one student currently working at Modernica. The Path to Independence Program and Mychal’s Learning Place has plans for a coffee cart to take to festivals in the area. The plans include a food certification program for interested students who will bake the products to sell with the coffee from the cart. The students build cat structures that are sold for income. In addition, they hope to set up internships with other local companies that can hire the Path to Independence adults to do janitorial work, packing and shipping, data entry, or work in a kitchen. Funding for Mychal’s Learning Place is accomplished through state funds, grants, donations, and fundraising, such as through the annual art show to be held this year on December 5 at 4901 Rosecrans Avenue, Hawthorne, the location of the all-inclusive facility, where all the artwork on the walls is from students both past and present. Donations are tax deductible and can be made to Mychal’s Learning Place at any time through their website: www.mychals.org . • The 26th Annual Pier Lighting and The 21st Annual Holiday Open House will be held Wednesday, November 18, 2015, from 6:00 PM - 9:00 PM in downtown Manhattan Beach and Manhattan Beach Pier.
