We’re proud of our amazing individuals & staff who took part in Spruce Up Spruce Grove put on by City of Spruce Grove - Your Local Government by helping clean a local park! Together, they collected 4 full bags of garbage, and various other large items from Woodside Park and made a meaningful impact on our community.

It was a great opportunity to give back, build connections, and take pride in keeping our shared spaces clean. Way to go, everyone!

Hey Everyone,

One of the young adults we support made this song of what it’s like to work at CommunityAIM and all the fun things you get to do. Give it a listen, it’s pretty catchy

🎨 Calling Local Artists! 🎨

CommunityAIM is looking for a talented artist who would be interested in creating a mural in our children’s playroom!

As a nonprofit organization, we support individuals with developmental disabilities. While we’ve traditionally worked more with teens and adults, we now have some younger kiddos joining us—and we’re building a fun, welcoming space just for them. 💛

We’re hoping to have a mural painted directly onto the wall to create a bright, engaging environment. (For safety reasons, we’re unable to hang artwork, so painting directly on the wall is the best option for our kids.)

In exchange, we are able to provide a charitable tax receipt for your time and work.

If you’re an artist—or know someone who might be interested in contributing their talent to a meaningful cause—we would love to connect! Please send us a message or tag someone below.

Let’s create something special for these kids together ✨

🐣🍀 Teen Group Recap Night! 🍀🐣

We had such a fun and energetic evening at our recent Teen Group, celebrating both Easter and St. Patrick’s Day!

Our scavenger hunt had everyone exploring and working together to find all the hidden goodies 🍬🍀 — the teamwork and excitement were amazing to see!

We also brought the energy with some Minute to Win It games, where participants challenged themselves with quick, silly, and skill-based activities. There were lots of laughs, cheering, and a little friendly competition among so many new faces! 🎉

It was great to see everyone engaged, supporting each other, and having so much fun together. Nights like these are what it’s all about!

Can’t wait for the next one 💚
