  • With November being National Gratitude Month, we’re catching up with members of the IBCF family and asking them what they’re grateful for. “I am so grateful to work with the students and staff of ISBVI and IBCF. Everyday I am surrounded by people who dedicate their lives to making a difference in the lives of others. Life does not get much better than that,’ says ISBVI superintendent James Michaels. “Last month I also had the good fortune to spend time with an amazing group of volunteers with an organization known as BarnRaisers of Indiana. They came to the school to take a tour and to present the School and IBCF with a donation for our accessible Culinary Arts Kitchen. I am thankful for groups like this who have a genuine desire to lend a helping hand.” Feel free to share what you’re grateful for in the comments below! #Accessibility [Photo Description: The image shows a professional headshot of a man.
