🐡 To celebrate his birthday, Jeremy wanted to get wild! Dedicated Arc staff made it their person-centered mission to book a trip to the Via Aquarium in Schenectady, where he was captivated by the colorful sea life and hands-on exhibits. 🪼 From spotting sharks and finding Nemo to feeding live stingrays, it was a dream come true, and just one way they made his special day one he'll never forget. 🦈

How cute is this? Recently, Kyrie joined our Chef's Express bakeshop as a baker in training. Soon after, one of our team members recognized Kyrie's father from a photo in a picture collage that hangs in a hallway at our headquarters at 245 Genesee Street in Utica. And, he's holding a much younger Kyrie during an aquatic therapy session many years ago. Dad and daughter decided to recreate the pose from that photo the other day. How time flies!
