Field trips, job shadowing, job sampling, and volunteer experiences within the community provide students with career awareness and exploration activities to observe and/or directly participate in. The students also spend time in the classroom working on activities related to career awareness, goal setting and self-advocacy, and workplace readiness skills. Participation in S.T.E.P. will expand students' knowledge of career opportunities, provide first hand employment, and enable them to practice workplace readiness skills in actual work environments.

Extractions: Hartnell program focuses on student health and fitness Few instructors have more compassion and understanding of their students' needs than Hartnell College's Melissa Stave. An instructor for 21 years in adaptive physical education at the 7,900-student campus in Salinas, Stave works with students who have heart disease, chronic pain and a variety of physical and psychological disabilities. Rod Rozin and Melissa Stave in the weight room. Rozin is a regular participant in the Hartnell College adapative PE program and credits it for not only improving his health and fitness but his outlook as well. Below, Ann Brown works out while instructor Yvonne Reid supervises. Over the years, Stave has come to know the best way to assist each of her students in reaching their maximum fitness goals. But when Stave suffered a debilitating back injury in 1992, she learned firsthand what it meant to have chronic pain herself - and to recover from it. And, last year, when she developed lupus, a chronic autoimmune disease, she was once again reminded of what many of her students face. More empathy
