Why we do what we do. These quotes say it all 🥰

A lot can change in a few decades.

We’ve moved away from the horrific conditions and forced policies of the mid-20th century toward a world built on advocacy and policy change. Our goal remains the same: helping our community experience life with dignity and choice.

We’re proud of how perceptions have shifted, and even prouder to be a leader in that change right here in Anderson. 💙

Mark your calendars, cause we’ve got another year packed with purpose and supporting our neighbors to shine. 💙

Hard to believe this barely scratches the surface of the year we've had. So many field trips, activities, events, volunteering opportunities — almost too many to count!

Happy New Year! We hope you're as excited as we are for 2026 😄
