    Have you seen Jeff?

    "Have you seen Jeff?" is one of the most frequently asked questions at The CDA Charter Academy and luckily for our Podcasting crew, the answer is yes. Jeff Rigg, Charter's every-man and all around nice guy, takes time out of his packed schedule to join the Panther Podcast and shares some thoughts on health during our time of isolation, what he has been doing with his family and what he doesn't like to eat(not a fan of mustard!). The panther podders discuss things that give them delight as well as share a few recent stories from their lives. The mailbag is opened! Mrs. Wasson's resource of the week is www.nicrisiscenter.org. That is the North Idaho Crisis Center, a nonprofit aimed at helping anyone experiencing a mental health or substance abuse crisis.
