If rising tides lift all ships, then Project SEARCH is how young adults with disabilities become captains of their own fates. The high school transition program has been conducted in partnership with Kootenai Health and the Coeur d'Alene School District for 15 years. Interns, graduates, business partners, school district leaders and hospital officials gathered Wednesday at Kootenai Health to celebrate just how much of an impact this program has made on countless lives and the community as a whole.
