Chippewa River Industries empowers community members with disabilities

For 51 years, Chippewa River Industries has been helping empower locals with disabilities, or as we say those with different abilities, to live independently which includes getting a job.
They have a pretty big fundraising event lined up with the Green Bay Packers.
As a part of the Packers Tailgate Tour, they’re teaming up CRI at Leinie’s Lodge. The money is going back to support CRI, so we wanted to meet a few employees making a difference in our community.
Shareece Olson and TJ Lane have both been employees for CRI for 13 years.
