What a great marathon weekend! DSC was proud to supply volunteers for the starting corrals at the Friday night 5K and Saturday’s full marathon. We had an amazing time bringing high energy and smiles as runners, walkers, Team Noah, and Girls on the Run kicked off their race. A huge thank you to our incredible volunteers who made it all possible—and to the Christie Clinic Illinois Marathon for creating a safe, inclusive event where people of all abilities can participate. 💙

We appreciated the opportunity to tour the Disability Resources & Educational Services (DRES) at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign and learn more about the supports that help create access and opportunity.

Our Friday Fashion Seekers visited The Perfect Pair / 121 Coffee Run in Warrensburg, and this visit has a special connection. During a recent stop, we were warmly welcomed by Beth, the owner’s mom. Before we left, she invited us to help decorate coffee sleeves for the shop.

Since then, the creativity has been flowing in our breakroom, with people coloring sleeves and adding their own personal touch. We can’t wait to see them in use and share a little extra joy with the community!

We enjoyed a peaceful day exploring the Japanese Gardens. A beautiful space to slow down, connect with nature, and enjoy the moment.

The Positivity Committee created care bags, this has been a multi-step project: co-leaders created the idea and shopping list, they then shopped for the bags. Co-leaders cut out kind messages to add to the bag. Later that day, we packed the care bags! The bags have been donated to C-U at Home.🫶

We were saddened to hear of the recent passing of our friend Barb, a dedicated advocate for children and the disability community. She devoted her career and her heart to supporting others. Her impact on our community, from her leadership on the Disability Resource Expo to her service on the Champaign County Developmental Disability Board will be felt for years to come.

We are grateful for her unwavering commitment and the many lives she touched. She will be missed.
