July 2025 Success Story

Kirsten' Success Story

Kirsten Moyers graduated from Carrollton High School and Buckeye Career Center in 2023. She wants to be included in every aspect of life including having a job in the community. In December of 2024, Kirsten began a six-month training program through the Carroll County Board of DD with  job coach, Reva Castelucci. The owners of The Ohio Grille agreed to have Kirsten and a job coach work in the restaurant for six months to strengthen her employment skills. She showed her desire to be independent right away and would often say ‘It’s my job, let me do it.”  She worked hard to prove she was capable of working for this business long term. As of June 2025, Kirsten is officially an employee of The Ohio Grille. Kirsten loves going to work and interacting with her coworkers. I’ve enjoyed watching her connect with her fellow employees and build relationships as well as them with her.  Congratulations Kirsten on achieving another goal you have set for yourself!
