Advertiser Staff

The Lanakila Rehabilitation Center Inc. Workforce Development Service will hold its second graduation ceremony from 11 a.m. to noon today at the State Capitol Auditorium.

There are 18 students in the non-profit organization's Class of 2008.

Graduates have completed course training in areas such as food service, manufacturing, grounds maintenance, custodial services, shelf stocking, cashiering, clerical support, delivery driving and warehouse services.

Officials of the program said the graduation ceremony is held to celebrate the inclusion of people with disabilities in the workforce and to increase awareness about an unrecognized labor resource in Hawaii.
