Bucks County Steps Up for Neurodiversity with Project SEARCH Internship Program
Bucks County commissioners are singing praises for Project SEARCH, which helps neurodivergent individuals find internships, writes Tom Sofield in Levittown Now.

“I think that it’s cool that we get to be in a building where not a lot of people like us get to go,” said one of the interns, Sophia, who processed marriage certificates at the Register for Wills Office.
Last month, Bucks County Commissioners recognized Neurodiversity Celebration Week.
Commissioners Bob Harvie and Diane Ellis-Marseglia emphasized the importance of the county’s partnership with Project SEARCH and its impact on the community.
