What a wonderful year of friendship, creativity, change, and success stories at Balsam. As with all years, life gave us a few lemons, but we made lemonade🍋

The incredible staff at Balsam (ARC) made sure people supported rang in the new year, complete with a dance party and fun🎉

As we embrace the upcoming year, we look forward to a year of learning, skill building, and supporting person directed decisions about the future. Those supported by Balsam programs will continue to be provided with the tools to help them make healthy choices, create meaningful community relationships, and celebrate their unique abilities.

At Balsam, all are celebrated each day of the year 🎊

At Balsam, we spend many hours with each other, learning and caring as we find opportunity in curiosity and adventure.

Individuals who participate in various programs provide daily joy and smiles through infectious laughter and happiness to one another and those who support them ❤️ Residents at the ARC often find comfort in many activities shared with friends and staff. Those living in one of the three Small Community Living Options homes enjoy many outings and shared community experiences with others. And those supported through our Independent Living Support Program learn to navigate independent apartment/housing experiences with compassionate guidance from staff 🏡🏘

Tomorrow is the first day of a new year 🎉 As we navigate 2026 together, we will take inspired action toward meeting personal goals, move forward with courage, and be open to new possibilities and positive changes.

We wish you a bright and prosperous 2026, filled with good health and cheer all year. ✨️🎈

It's Christmas Eve morning at Balsam, and it is time to relax in holiday hats, share special time with family who visit, and exchange gifts before the man in the red suit arrives under the peaceful darkness of Christmas.🎁🎄

Balsam is a place for supported people to learn how to cook meals for themselves and others, learn independent dressing skills, and how to transition into community living with knowledge and understanding of accessing supports. 🥘🥣

Kitchen staff are an essential part of a healthy lifestyle at Balsam through their experience and education. Balsam provides specialized diets to meet the nutritional needs of every individual living at the ARC. Much love and care go into food prep and delivery of meals. 🍞🥦🍕🍔

Staff lovingly take time to support individuals in their daily hygiene and dressing routines, often helping them with the little extras like earrings, holiday attire, or glittering head pieces that make a unique and individual statement ❤️ 👗👒💄💍👔
