"If it were not for the Beebe Center, I would not be where I am today. I cannot possibly fathom the amazing opportunities I have had throughout my life, including being mainstreamed in hearing schools all my life without the assistance of interpreters and being the catcher of my college baseball team. Today, in the workplace, I find myself constantly meeting with Fortune 500 company clients discussing ways to change systems to create a better future."

-J. Paul Sommer
Board Member and Graduate of the Beebe Center
