🎉 Project SEARCH Grads Step Into the Future
Halifax Health recently honored 18 determined young adults who completed its Project SEARCH program, a year-long workforce initiative designed to help students with disabilities transition from school into competitive employment. The graduation ceremony was filled with pride as hospital leaders and Volusia County Schools representatives praised the students’ commitment and growth.
The program, a collaborative effort between Halifax Health and the school district, provides real-world job training and support. Its goal? Empower students to gain the skills and confidence to thrive in the workplace. This year’s class joins a growing group of alumni who’ve used the experience to launch into the next chapter of their lives with purpose.

🚔 Man Arrested in Ormond Beach Over Threats Against Trump
In a stark contrast to the celebratory news, Ormond Beach police arrested 25-year-old Sheldon Biddle on June 5 after a federal indictment alleged he made violent online threats against President Donald Trump and several other public figures, including Elon Musk and Benjamin Netanyahu.
Biddle had previously been arrested in April on a state charge for similar threats and now faces federal charges for expressing intentions to assassinate the president. His social media posts included graphic threats and anti-semitic rhetoric. Authorities say he also referenced attacks on YouTube headquarters and made inflammatory accusations about former President Biden.
Biddle, who has a prior criminal record, is currently held without bond. Police Chief Jesse Godfrey reaffirmed the city's zero-tolerance policy: “No one should feel unsafe... and we will act swiftly to hold offenders accountable.”
