What an incredible day at the Autism 1K-Walk in Merrillville! 💙

We had such a great time connecting with families and sharing important water safety tips at our table. It was amazing to see so many runners and supporters come out—this cool spring weather didn’t slow anyone down!

Thank you to everyone who stopped by to chat, learn, and show support. Days like today remind us how strong and connected our community truly is 💧🏃‍♀️💙

Happy National Cleaning Week 🧼

It’s National Cleaning Week! Did you know that liquid laundry packets are designed to dissolve in water? That means if they come into contact with a child’s wet hands or mouth, they can quickly release concentrated chemicals. Keep your little ones safe by storing these packets out of reach and sight. Always keep them in their original container with the lid securely closed.
