✨ March is Developmental Disabilities Awareness Month!

A meaningful time to pause, reflect, and recommit to creating communities where everyone is valued, included, and empowered to thrive. 💙

🧩 Developmental disabilities are more common—and more visible—than many people realize.
Across the U.S., 1 in 6 children has a developmental disability. These include lifelong conditions such as Autism, Cerebral Palsy, Down Syndrome, Fragile X Syndrome, and others that can impact learning, behavior, mobility, or daily living.

Developmental disabilities cross every demographic line and touch every community—reminding us how important awareness, inclusion, and support truly are. 💙

This March, NACCD is proud to celebrate Developmental Disabilities Month with the launch of We’re Here: Then, Now, Always campaign. The national campaign recognizes a simple truth: people with developmental disabilities have always been part of our communities — and always will be.

🧧💥Happy Lunar New Year! 🎉💥

What is Lunar New Year?

Lunar New Year celebrates the start of a new year on the lunar calendar, which follows the moon’s phases rather than the solar cycle. This cherished festival is filled with family reunions, prayers, festive meals, and traditions that invite good fortune.

In 2026, Lunar New Year falls on Tuesday, February 17, marking the Year of the Horse, one of the 12 zodiac animals in the lunar cycle. Each zodiac animal carries its own traits, including the Rat, Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Snake, Horse, Goat, Monkey, Rooster, Dog, and Pig.

The Year of the Horse symbolizes energy, confidence, freedom, and forward movement, making 2026 a year focused on progress, action, and new opportunities.

🌱 A Growing Story at Swann Special Care 🌱

Inside a quiet corner of Swann Special Care, something extraordinary is happening. What began as a simple idea—a way to nurture both skills and sustainability—has blossomed into a thriving Aquaponics Program filled with life, learning, and possibility.

Every day, individuals supported at Swann step into the “greenhouse” to tend to a living ecosystem they helped build. Together, they monitor water levels, care for the fish, and cultivate several species of vibrant plants that are growing stronger by the day. The program has become more than a garden—it’s a place of purpose, teamwork, and pride.

🌿 This spring, their hard work will be on display.
A variety of fresh, locally grown plants will be available for purchase, and every dollar earned will go right back into the program—fueling more growth, more learning, and more opportunities for the people we serve.
With each seedling sold, you’re not just taking home a plant.
You’re supporting independence.
You’re nurturing creativity.
You’re helping our community thrive.

Stay tuned for sale dates—and thank you for helping Swann Special Care continue to grow hope from the inside out. 🌷💚
