As we wrap up National Volunteer Week, we’re honored to celebrate the many people who make InCommunity so special.

Our final Volunteer Spotlight features two individuals supported by InCommunity, Matthew M. and Lisa E.

Matthew and Lisa have both played a meaningful role in supporting InCommunity events, including lending a hand at our annual gala. Their enthusiasm, teamwork, and joy help create memorable experiences for everyone involved.

“I really enjoy volunteering at InCommunity, especially helping with the galas. April was the one who first got me involved, and she used to help me get everything ready. I remember last year, toward the end of the gala, Lisa and I handed out cookies—it was a really great experience.” — Matthew M.

“Thank you! Last year, we handed out cookies at the gala, and it was a lot of fun.” — Lisa E.

Thank you, Matthew and Lisa, for the energy and heart you bring to our community. You remind us what volunteering is all about.

As we continue celebrating National Volunteer Week, we’re proud to recognize our incredible community partners.

Today’s spotlight: Pebble Tossers

Through their partnership with InCommunity, Pebble Tossers volunteers have brought energy, compassion, and connection to our programs, especially during their visit to the Art & Food Day Center.

"Partnering with InCommunity and visiting the Art & Food Day Center was such a joyful and uplifting experience. From making pancakes to sharing meals, laughter, and meaningful moments, our time alongside participants was a beautiful reminder of the power of community and inclusion. I left feeling inspired by the genuine joy and warmth of everyone we met, and truly fulfilled knowing the impact was shared by all. This is exactly why we value our partnership with InCommunity so deeply." — Alysha Alimohamed, Pebble Tossers

We’re grateful for partners like Pebble Tossers who help create meaningful experiences and foster true connection in our community.

It’s National Volunteer Week, and we’re continuing our celebration by recognizing the incredible people who support InCommunity 💙

Today’s Volunteer Spotlight is Angela Waddy-Bell.

Over the past year, Angela has made a meaningful impact through her dedication and heart for others. While attending Candler School of Theology at Emory University, she created and led her own curriculum, teaching twice a week at both Art & Food and UPC. She also consistently stepped in to support any needs across our day programs.

“Volunteering at InCommunity has taught me the value of showing up in spaces that many people overlook. The lessons I’ve learned here will stay with me wherever I go. I’ve grown more aware of the needs of individuals with I/DD and feel committed to making sure they are seen, supported, and included in every space.

I’ve truly loved my time at InCommunity—the people here are so giving, so joyful, and they will always hold a special place in my heart.”

Thank you, Angela, for the care, intention, and joy you’ve brought to our community. You’ve made a lasting difference.

It’s National Volunteer Week, and we’re kicking things off by celebrating two amazing volunteers 💙

Today’s Volunteer Spotlight: Wendi Schutt & Diana Clement

Through their time leading art classes, Wendi and Diana have helped create a space where individuals can express themselves, build confidence, and take pride in their creativity.

“Volunteering with InCommunity has been incredibly meaningful to me. I look forward to spending time with the students in our art class and seeing how excited they are to come in, create and express themselves. Over the past year and a half, it has been so rewarding to watch their growth—not just in their artistic abilities, but in their self-esteem and confidence. Seeing them take pride in their work, try new things, and support one another is inspiring. Being part of that journey has been a gift, and it continually reminds me of the power of creativity to build connection, confidence and joy.” — Wendi Schutt

“Volunteering at InCommunity is a rewarding experience. I have been teaching art classes for 3 years. The students are always open to trying new things and have made many beautiful art pieces! Some of their work was sold at the gala which raised money for InCommunity! They also have work on display and for sale at The Woodruff Arts Center! I am very proud of their accomplishments.” — Diana Clement

Thank you both for the time, care, and creativity you bring to InCommunity!

InCommunity Celebrates National Volunteer Week 🎉

National Volunteer Week is a time to recognize the people who give their time and care to strengthen our communities. Since 1974, it has grown into a nationwide movement celebrating service in all its forms.

This year shines a light on the people and causes that inspire us to serve. Volunteers show up. They give their time, energy, and care without asking for recognition. But this week, we’re changing that.

All week long, InCommunity will be highlighting incredible volunteers and organizations who are making a real difference. Each day, we’ll share their stories, their impact, and the heart behind what they do.

We hope these stories inspire you, remind you of the power of giving back, and maybe even encourage you to get involved in your own way.

Stay tuned as we shine a light on the people who make community possible. ❤️

April is Autism Acceptance Month, and it’s an opportunity to move beyond awareness and focus on what true inclusion really looks like.

This year’s theme, “Autism and Humanity – Every Life Has Value,” challenges all of us to think about how we create communities where people of all abilities are respected, supported, and given the opportunity to thrive.

In our latest blog, we take a closer look at what it means to move from awareness to action—and how each of us can play a role in building more inclusive systems, workplaces, and communities.

April is Autism Acceptance Month, a time to recognize, uplift, and celebrate the lives and contributions of people on the autism spectrum. It is also a moment to take a closer look at where we are, where we fall short, and what it will take to build communities that truly include everyone.
