This April 1st, we're proud to share our new name: The Astevement Center of LECOM Health.

Going forward, we will only work with children, parents, and caregivers named "Steve." If your name is not "Steve," we will call you Steve. We know this will bring about questions, so we have some answers for you:

"𝑰 𝒅𝒐𝒏'𝒕 𝒘𝒂𝒏𝒕 𝒕𝒐 𝒃𝒆 𝒄𝒂𝒍𝒍𝒆𝒅 𝑺𝒕𝒆𝒗𝒆. 𝑾𝒉𝒂𝒕 𝒅𝒐 𝑰 𝒅𝒐?"
You accept your new name, Steve. What are we going to do about it? We just make the rules around here.

"𝑴𝒚 𝒏𝒂𝒎𝒆 𝒊𝒔 𝒂𝒍𝒓𝒆𝒂𝒅𝒚 𝑺𝒕𝒆𝒗𝒆. 𝑾𝒉𝒂𝒕 𝒅𝒐𝒆𝒔 𝒕𝒉𝒂𝒕 𝒎𝒆𝒂𝒏 𝒇𝒐𝒓 𝒎𝒆?"
It means you're ahead of the game, Steve. You're a trend-setter. An inspiration to all. Keep doing your thing, Steve!

"𝑰𝒇 𝒕𝒉𝒆𝒓𝒆 𝒂𝒓𝒆 𝒎𝒖𝒍𝒕𝒊𝒑𝒍𝒆 𝒑𝒆𝒐𝒑𝒍𝒆 𝒊𝒏 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒘𝒂𝒊𝒕𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒓𝒐𝒐𝒎 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝒚𝒐𝒖 𝒄𝒂𝒍𝒍 𝒐𝒖𝒕 '𝑺𝒕𝒆𝒗𝒆,' 𝒉𝒐𝒘 𝒘𝒊𝒍𝒍 𝒘𝒆 𝒌𝒏𝒐𝒘 𝒘𝒉𝒊𝒄𝒉 𝑺𝒕𝒆𝒗𝒆 𝒊𝒕'𝒔 𝒇𝒐𝒓?"
It's all vibes based now. If you feel like it might be for you, stand up and go for it.

For any questions about our new brand and policy, please contact our executive director, Steve Dundon, at stevedundon@april1.org.
