Our latest Work That Matters postcard and newspaper ad feature state employee and MEA-MFT member Monica Sayler.

Sayler is an orientation and mobility specialist at the Montana School for the Deaf and the Blind. She helps blind students from ages three to 21 gain skills they need to travel self sufficiently.

“Once they gain confidence, the world isn’t scary anymore,” Sayler says. Her students learn not to let their disability prevent them from taking control of their lives. They learn they can do things like ride a bus, shop for groceries, go to school, and get a job as part of Montana’s workforce.

“I’m concerned about people’s quality of life,” she says of her students. “Our job is to put the best interest of the child first.”

Thank you, Monica, for doing Work That Matters for Montana’s people.
