Ramona’s Poem


When Lusine Gambaryan, SLS Assistant Program Director at InClusion Services, recently stopped by to visit Ramona, Ramona shared a poem she had written entitled "A Poem About Ramona." Ramona asked that they read it together, as it was written just after a particularly difficult experience that she went through and Lusine shares, "This touched my heart that Ramona was courageous enough to write out her thoughts and express them on paper."

Ramona is a young adult who has successfully transitioned from living in a state developmental center to living in her own apartment with supports. She is a member of Lanterman's Client Advisory Committee as well. 

Lusine adds, "After reading this, I am confident that Ramona is trying very hard to overcome her daily challenges. She also understands that with the help of her support circle she has come a long way to turn around at this."
