Richland Newhope donates books to first graders
MANSFIELD - With the ongoing concerns of COVID-19, Richland Newhope was not able to celebrate March Awareness in the traditional manner. One of this year’s awareness activities included a book distribution to celebrate Developmental Disabilities Awareness Month with the local schools.
Richland Newhope distributed a book about inclusion to public and private first-grade students in Richland County. With the help from Scholastic, Richland County Youth and Family Council and United Way’s Big Red Bookshelf, Newhope was able to distribute 1,400 copies of the book Strictly No Elephants, written by Lisa Mantchev.
