<p>Writers’ Group, a Swearer Center Community Program, received the Arc of
Blackstone Valley's 2010 Special Recognition Award at a ceremony on
March 16, 2011. For the last 20 years, student volunteers for the Writers’
Group have worked with developmentally disabled adults who are part of
Blackstone Valley Industries, a division of the Arc. The Writers’ Group
provides these adults with a forum to express themselves and develop
their personal creativity and communicative skills through weekly
writing workshops.</p>
