Today, we celebrate White Cane Day—a time to recognize the white cane as more than a tool for mobility. It’s a symbol of health, independence, and empowerment for people who are blind or have low vision.

At the Road to Wellness, we honor the incredible blind and visually impaired runners and walkers who embody strength, balance, and resilience with every step. Whether walking with a cane, running with a guide, or navigating by sound and feel, these athletes remind us that wellness is for everyone—and that movement connects us all.

Ways to show support today and every day:
🚶‍♀️ Be mindful and share the road or trail
💬 Ask before offering assistance
❤️ Encourage movement and wellbeing for people of all abilities

Together, we celebrate health and wellness for all of those in our Road to Wellness family!

💊 At the Dimock Pharmacy, we’re proud to celebrate our dedicated team and their first year of incredible service!

As local pharmacies continue to close—nearly 300 since 2010—we’re prouder than ever of our very own pharmacy, located right on the Dimock campus.

From short wait times and curbside pickup to multilingual service and on-site financial counseling, Dimock Pharmacy is breaking down barriers and redefining what accessible, affordable care looks like.

We’re honored to see our impact highlighted in MassLive’s recent article: https://ow.ly/sl7W50X2WoY

This Addiction Professionals Day, we’re honored to highlight a member of our team who has dedicated her life to supporting women and families on their recovery journeys. 💙

Meet Gloria Johnson, Recovery Specialist at Ruth Kelley Ummi’s House, a residential Substance Use Disorder treatment community for women and their children. Gloria began her career at Dimock 34 years ago.

Now, 38 years into her own recovery, Gloria finds purpose in helping others build stable foundations for their futures.

About her work at Dimock, she shares:
“It’s mental health and addiction wrapped together. This is the next step—it’s about guiding women to get a foundation, securing housing, taking care of medical needs, and reuniting with children when families are ready.”

We’re deeply grateful for Gloria, and for all of our addiction professionals, for their compassion, strength, and commitment to our community. 🙌
