Thank You

Thank you to Talos Energy for sponsoring a Bowl-a-thon for all of our adult day program participants! They had an absolute blast bowling and getting to know their new friends. We are so grateful for their incredible support of our mission! 

Now Accepting: New Adult Day Program Participants

The adult day program has recently expanded to a new space, and enrollment is now open. This exciting expansion will allow us to double the number of adults that we currently serve and open our program to those that have long-awaited our vital services. With a recreational room, life skills lab, grocery vocational lab and more, the space will encourage community-based activities and improve social and vocational skills of our program participants.

Thank You

We sincerely thank the Insurance Industry Charitable Foundation for their generous $15,000 gift in support of our adult day program! Their funds will support our expansion and will enable us to grow our adult day program by increasing our enrollment.
