Thankful Thursday to all our volunteers who came out a few weekends ago for our Beeper Egg Hunt!

To all our volunteers, whether they join us out in the community on the weekends or in the building during the week, we appreciate all they do for us, but most importantly, our families!

The best way to end the week!

We had an amazing turnout last week for our monthly story time! We got to see some familiar faces and even meet some new friends! Events like these are great opportunities for children with disabilities and their peers to interact, play, and learn side by side.

We look forward to seeing everyone on May 15th at 10:30 for our last Spring Storytime, where we will engage in fun springtime activities and even plant some seeds!

Whether it’s learning braille, holding a cane, or brushing their teeth, occupational therapy helps so many of our students reach their goals!

Our favorite moments from Saturday's Beeper Egg Hunt!

We couldn't have asked for a better day! Between the little moments of catching up with friends and hunting for eggs, Saturday was filled with smiles, laughs, and a little bit of springtime magic!

Thank you to everyone who came out to the Beeper Egg Hunt and to all our volunteers who helped make the day happen! Here to more accessible and inclusive events like these!

Nothing but smiles and a warm spring day!🩷

Throwback to this year's Spring Fling, where we got to meet new friends and engage with families across all our programs! Social events like Spring Fling are a wonderful way to bring families from all walks of life together for a meaningful time of connection.

Join us this Saturday at 10 am for our next big family event: The Beeper Egg Hunt (more info and registration in comments)
