Thank you to everyone who supported our Art Supply Drive. From paints and coloring books to brushes and markers, your generosity filled our shelves and opened the door for new ideas, self-expression, and joy.

These supplies will be used by the individuals we support to explore their creativity, build confidence, and share their unique perspectives with the world.

We’re so grateful for our community! 💛

Inclusion is as simple as inviting someone in, listening, or choosing respectful language. Small actions create lasting impact.

This Developmental Disabilities Awareness Month, we’re celebrating what inclusion looks like in action.

Our Personal Achievement Award winner, Jazzy, just celebrated 20 years with Walmart! Her team marked the milestone with a special recognition (and cake! 🎂).

Here’s to Jazzy—and to the everyday actions that help build a more inclusive community.
