Last year, the top 4 fundraisers got pied by their supervisors… and let’s just say our staff haven’t forgotten. 👀🥧

This year?
💥 It’s payback time.
The top 4 staff members who bring in the most donations will get to pie a supervisor!

Want to help someone earn their shot?

💖 Donate to Freedom Resource Center before January 26, 2026 to help us raise our matching funds!

Today's Frequently Asked Question: What makes Freedom Resource Center different?

At Freedom Resource Center, our team isn’t just helping people with disabilities. We are people with disabilities. Many of our staff and board members bring their own lived experiences to the work we do every day, giving us a unique perspective on independence, choice, and community.💙

This shared experience shapes everything we do. It means we understand challenges firsthand, celebrate successes fully, and create programs and supports that truly meet the needs of our community.

Being part of a team that reflects the people we serve makes our approach personal, empowering, and connected. We’re not just advocates. We’re neighbors, peers, and partners on the journey toward independence.

Introducing our new series: Freedom FAQs! (Frequently Asked Questions)

We’ve been receiving many similar questions lately, so each week we’ll be breaking down common topics about who we are, what we do, and how Independent Living works at Freedom Resource Center. 💙

Today's Frequently Asked Question:
What is Independent Living?

At Freedom Resource Center, we follow the Independent Living philosophy, which is all about choice, control, and community.

Here’s what that means:

• You are the expert on your own life. People with disabilities know best what they need, and you stay in charge of your goals and decisions.

• Peer support matters. We believe in learning from each other, encouraging each other, and sharing lived experience.

• Barriers, not disabilities, limit independence. We work to remove physical, social, and systemic barriers so everyone can fully participate in their community.

• It’s more than a service model. Independent Living is a commitment to respect, empowerment, self-advocacy, and inclusion.

At Freedom Resource Center, we don’t do things for people, we do things with people. Together, we support individuals in building the life they choose.
