🎄 12 Days of Gratitude | Day 4 🎄

Today we’re grateful for moments that build confidence, connection, and community. Our trip to the Five Islands Retreat was especially meaningful, as for some of our participants it was the very first time experiencing an overnight trip away from home.
From swinging by the water and clam digging to cooking together, sharing meals, and laughing side by side, every moment was about togetherness. Time spent in nature offers space to slow down, breathe, and reconnect, while shared experiences help strengthen bonds and create a true sense of belonging.
This retreat was a powerful reminder of how inclusion, community, and access to meaningful experiences play an essential role in supporting mental health. We’re so grateful for the memories made, the connections strengthened, and the joy shared along the way 💛

🧺Day 3 of our 12 Days of Gratitude 🧸
Today we’re looking back with gratitude at one of our sweetest summer moments, the Teddy Bear Picnic. This joyful day brought participants, families, and staff together for connection, laughter, and a little childhood magic.
Teddy bears are more than just toys they are symbols of comfort, safety, and emotional support. For many, they represent a trusted companion during difficult moments, a reminder that you’re not alone, and a source of calm in times of stress. These small comforts can play a powerful role in supporting mental health and emotional well-being at any age.
We’re grateful for moments like these that create space for play, healing, and meaningful connection. Thank you to everyone who helped make this day so special 🧸
