📣 BIG NEWS! We’re officially expanding My Day, our day habilitation program, into NWMO! Opening soon in St Joseph, this newly renovated space is designed to support, connect, and create meaningful opportunities for adults with disabilities in a vibrant, community-focused environment.

As we bring this vision to life, we’d love for you to be part of it. We’ve created a wishlist filled with items that will help us get up and running and make this space fun and engaging from day one.

Some big congratulations are in order.

Our Vice President of Training, Vincent, has been named the 2026 Nonprofit Connect Catalyst Award recipient (Staff – Large Organization).

This award recognizes leaders who are pushing the nonprofit sector forward, and Vincent has done exactly that through the way he’s shaped training across our organization - helping team members feel confident, prepared, and supported in the work they do every day.

Around here, we also know him as our Jedi Master of Training, and this award proves the force is strong with this one. 👏
Help us celebrate this well-deserved recognition!

Thank you to members of the Missouri House Budget Committee for restoring funding that protects Day Habilitation and Self-Directed Supports services in the proposed state budget.

These services are essential for individuals with developmental disabilities to live full, connected lives in their communities.

The budget process continues, and we’re grateful to legislators who recognize how important these services are for Missouri families.

Please click the link below to thank your State Representative for their support—it only takes a couple minutes.

We also want to thank all of our advocates, families, and community members who spoke up. Your voices made a difference, and this progress shows that advocacy works!

Lend your voice on crucial issues that affect people with disabilities and the staff, friends, family, and communities who love and support them.
