Pueblo Diversified Industries (PDI) with its new front facade and entrance.
In the full spirit of continuing to serve our clients with intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/DD) and what PDI refers to as "diverse abilities", and keep all of the PDI family safe, the agency has set up virtual on-line communication using ClassDojo.
Anthony and Mickie working on ClassDojo at Pueblo Diversified Industries (pre-social distancing).
ClassDojo is an educational technology communication platform utilizing app and website protocols. It connects primary school teachers, students and families through communication features, such as a feed for photos and videos from the day. PDI is using ClassDojo to post class activities that would normally be done here at PDI. Now they have the full capacity to work from home. It gives a sense of connection to staff and the people we serve by interacting through Classdojo. It also allows them to respond and interact with each other and everyone involved. We are able to provide each class's activities, as well as provide virtual tours of museums, zoos, and a variety of destinations for Supported Community Connections and Direct Provider services. We can assign tasks and connect with one another throughout the day.
We have been told that no other agency is doing this. We are #PDI Proud.
