The Community Support Committee at SCI Waymart sponsored an "Adopt a Child" program. Waymart staff adopted children identified by Children and Youth Services, Mental Health/Intellectual Disability Program and Victims Intervention. A large number of the children identified are in placements and do not have any family support system and/or are challenged with ID and autism. Staff were very generous, as always, in providing the children with multiple (if not all of the) items on their wish lists.
