Goals don’t have to be big to make a big difference. ✨
Daily routines—like loading dishes or wiping down the table—help build confidence, independence, and pride. Every small goal achieved is a step toward a stronger, more empowered life.

Our President & CEO, Cindy Clark, spoke with First Alert 4 about the serious impact the SNAP benefits pause will have on both our clients and Missourians across the region.

Cindy shared how many adults with developmental disabilities rely on SNAP to afford food and how Emmaus is working with partners to help fill the gap during this crisis. Watch below 👇

Driving Accessibility Forward! 💙

Emmaus Homes, Inc., plans to apply for a federally funded accessible vehicle to meet the needs of individuals with disabilities in Warren County. If you wish to comment, please contact us within 30 days (3731 Mueller Rd., St. Charles, MO 63301 or send us a message) or contact MODOT directly (P.O. Box 270, Jefferson City, MO 65102).

Did you know that 75 percent of Emmaus clients and 650,000 Missourians could lose SNAP benefits this November if Congress does not act? This is more than a policy issue. It is a hunger crisis that threatens the health and stability of people with disabilities and families across our state.

Emmaus will never let our clients go hungry, but we cannot do this alone. We need your voice. We have created an easy-to-use form to contact your elected officials. You can also donate down below. Take action today. Hunger cannot wait. Click the link below👇

After 15+ years of transformative leadership, we announce the upcoming retirement of Cindy Clark, President & CEO of Emmaus Homes, effective June 30, 2026.

Cindy joined Emmaus in 2009 as CFO and quickly rose to lead as CEO in 2010. Her tenure has been marked by unwavering dedication to our mission, faith-driven service, and heartfelt connection to the individuals and families we serve.

Under her visionary guidance, Emmaus transitioned from campus-based care to integrating more than two hundred clients into homes within the community. She championed rate reform, improved wages for direct support professionals, and helped stabilize our workforce, leaving a legacy of compassion, impact, and innovation.

The Board of Directors has launched an inclusive search for our next CEO, supported by Occhio Search and Recruitment.

Please join us in celebrating Cindy’s incredible journey and wishing her joy and fulfillment in her next chapter! 💙
