Huge thanks to Travis Dassylva, Josh Kraner, and the crew at for tackling six tree removals and trimming countless others. Their work has made a huge difference in the look and safety of our property. Mid-State is fast, efficient, and always willing to work with our non-profit. This is year two of them keeping our building and grounds in great shape through every season. From mowing and spring cleanups to snow removal all winter long, we are grateful for partners we can trust and depend on.

We wanted to take a moment to recognize our very own team member, Ava Long, and celebrate the success of her portfolio show at COTC this week!

Ava joined us as a marketing intern fresh out of high school and has quickly become a crucial part of our team. She works closely with our administrative staff on marketing and brand design, creating brochures, business cards, and so much more.

As she enters the final semesters of her degree, we’re incredibly grateful for her growth, her willingness to learn, and most importantly, her buy-in and dedication to LAPP’s mission. We’re proud of you, Ava!

Thank you to Chris and his team for the amazing job transforming the dorm room for our Drivers Intervention Program. It’s truly incredible what a difference a fresh coat of paint can make.
The CJG crew were quick, professional and, most importantly, genuinely caring about the people we serve at LAPP and our mission. This space is where individuals come to reflect, heal, and begin their journey toward recovery, and their work helped create an environment that feels welcoming and supportive. More updates to come!
