“PTO has always helped the Living Skills Class here at LAMS.  The reimbursement they provide allows us to do many things we would not be able to do.  We are looking forward to baking pies this fall along with some other cooking and budgeting projects in the kitchen.  Thank you very much PTO.”
Rebecca “Miss Becky” Smith, LAMS Living Skills/Case Manager
