  Mrs. CAPPS. Mr. Speaker, today I rise to recognize LOVARC, an 
organization dedicated to helping Americans with disabilities find 
employment and live fulfilling lives. LOVARC was established in 1964 as 
a non-profit organization with the goal of helping those with 
disability. Its dedication to helping those in need is laudable and 
should be recognized by the United States Congress.
  In 1995, LOVARC was awarded a contract for two dining facilities, the 
Breakers and the Beachcomber, at Vandenberg Air Force Base. Since that 
time, LOVARC has won the Hennessey Award for the best dining facility 
in Space Command seven times. This is an outstanding accomplishment, 
and I am proud that they have served the people of the 23rd District 
through their work at Vandenberg Air Force Base.
  I am pleased to recognize the administrators, volunteers, and 
employees of this organization. Their efforts have resulted in the 
creation of jobs for many in my district, and for

that I am grateful. Many Americans with disabilities now enjoy better 
lives due to this organization's service. I am proud of their work with 
the military and wish them a wonderful future in service to our 
community.
