                    in the house of representatives

                         Monday, June 12, 2023

  Ms. PETTERSEN. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize Giada Rosch, a 
high school student from Arvada, Colorado for earning the Girl Scout 
Gold Award.
  Two years ago, Giada created and donated fifty sensory resource bags 
to the Arvada Fire Department to support local citizens with sensory 
challenges. She also formed a sensory training program for local 
businesses and nonprofit organizations to help them learn how to make 
appropriate accommodations for community members with sensory needs. 
While developing these resources and educational programs, Giada 
secured more than $500 in donations to contribute to the creation and 
expansion of her program.
  Her dedication as an advocate for the one in six people nationwide 
who experience sensory discomfort has made Giada an agent of change in 
the Arvada community. Her training programs have educated several 
hundred community leaders and contributed to the accessibility of her 
hometown. Giada's dedication and passion for helping her community 
exemplify the spirit and resiliency of a Girl Scout, which is why she 
has been awarded the 2021 Girl Scouts Gold Award.
  Mr. Speaker, on behalf of the people of Colorado's Seventh 
Congressional district, I thank Giada Rosch for her dedicated service 
and I wish her the best of luck in her future endeavors.
