Student Chapter of Council for Exceptional Children Hosts Dance

Rider’s student chapter of the Council for Exceptional Children recently hosted a dance for young adults with disabilities in the local community. Activities included dancing, crafts, and games. Approximately 30 Rider students planned and facilitated the dance. This is an annual event that provides an opportunity for young adults with disabilities from the community to socialize and interact with Rider students. Dr. Diane Giannola, Dr. Joanne Vesay, assistant professors in the department of teacher education and Dr. Michele Kamens, associate professor in the department of teacher education, are co-advisors of the student chapter. The Rider CEC is open to all Rider students and is part of an international professional organization for those interested in the education of individuals with exceptionalities.
