The Springfield Region recently hosted its annual winter holiday party, featuring a Polar Express theme! We came dressed in our favorite pajamas, enjoyed the photo booths, and celebrated together.

We were grateful to welcome State Representatives Melanie Stinnett and Stephanie Hein For Missouri, who took time out of their day to attend and share meaningful conversations with our Firefly community. Their presence meant a great deal to everyone involved.

Thank you as well to Nixa Meal Prep Co. for providing a wonderful meal and desserts that helped make the day special. We appreciate all who helped make this event a memorable and joyful celebration!

Our Rolla Fireflies enjoyed participating in the annual Christmas Parade on December 6! Staff and clients walked and drove in the parade, proudly representing Firefly with our banner, matching T-shirts, and plenty of swag to share.

It was a great opportunity to connect with the Rolla community and be a part of a festive local tradition.

Thank you to Visit Rolla and the Rolla Chamber for hosting such a fun and welcoming event!

These three incredible team members were honored with this year’s Firefly DSP of the Year awards, and while we’re thrilled to celebrate them, we also know they represent something bigger.

Every Direct Support Professional plays a vital role in the lives of the people we serve. Their work may not always make headlines, but it changes lives every single day through patience, advocacy, connection, and care.

To every DSP: we see you, we appreciate you, and we’re so glad you’re part of the Firefly family. 💛

🎨 Pumpkin Painting Day at the El Dorado Springs Day Program was a simple way to connect, create, and enjoy the season together! Everyone brought their own style to the table, and the results were as unique as the people who made them.

There’s nothing better than color, creativity, and a room full of friends!
