🌷 𝗛𝗲𝗹𝗹𝗼, 𝗦𝗽𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 🌷

Today, our team took a moment to welcome the first day of spring by planting flowers together. 🌱

It’s a simple act, but a meaningful one. Growth takes time, care, and the right support. The same is true for the work we do every day.

At Independence, Inc., we believe in creating spaces where people can grow, gain confidence, and live life on their own terms.

Here’s to new beginnings, fresh starts, and a season full of possibility. 💚

At Independence, Inc., we believe everyone deserves the opportunity to live independently, make their own choices, and pursue their goals with dignity and support. Inclusion matters, access matters, and every person deserves the chance to belong and thrive.

Let’s continue working together to build a community where barriers are removed and everyone has the opportunity to succeed. 💙

Today we celebrate the spirit of resilience, hope, and good fortune that reminds us how powerful a supportive community can be.

Your voice can help shape the future of independent living in North Dakota.

The Statewide Independent Living Council (SILC) is working on the next State Plan for Independent Living, and we want to hear from people with disabilities, people who may have received services in the past, as well as family members, friends, and community partners.

Your input will help identify the most important needs facing people with disabilities across our state.

Please take a few minutes to complete the survey that fits you best and share it with others. The more voices we hear, the stronger the plan will be.

Consumer Survey (people with disabilities or past consumers):

Family, Friends, or Provider Survey:
https://www.forms.nd.gov/260485475486874

A huge thank you to 𝗦𝗮𝗶𝗴𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗞𝗮𝗱𝘆𝗻 for volunteering their time and energy to help make Chili Bowl X such a success.

Saige (17) is currently interning with Independence, Inc. through the Senior Internship Class in partnership with Companions for Children - Youth Mentoring , and she was an incredible help both leading up to the event and throughout the night. From jumping in wherever needed to keeping things moving behind the scenes, Saige brought a great attitude and a strong work ethic that made a real difference.

Kadyn (19) is attending UND and working toward an education degree. He has a strong passion for inclusion and is always willing to step up and volunteer his time for causes that matter. His willingness to help and support our mission never goes unnoticed.

Seeing young people invest their time and talents into building a stronger, more inclusive community gives us so much hope for the future.

One of the highlights of Chili Bowl X was our fantastic panel of celebrity judges who had the very difficult job of tasting their way through some truly incredible chili.

With so many amazing competitors bringing their A-game this year, choosing a winner was no easy task. We are so grateful for the time, energy, and fun spirit our judges brought to the night.

Because of their hard work (and brave taste buds!), they helped crown our Critics’ Choice winner: Gourmet Chef
