To our families, thank you for trusting us, partnering with us, and cheering alongside us. We see you and we appreciate you more than you know.

To our supporters, volunteers, and community, your kindness and belief in our mission make everything possible. We feel that love every single day.

SLI is more than a program. It is a community built on care, encouragement, and showing up for each other.

From our staff to all of you, thank you for letting us be part of your journey. We are so grateful for you today and every day. ❤️
