We were honored to stand alongside the Maryland Developmental Disabilities Council and the Maryland Association of Community Services (MACS) for Disabilities Day 2026.

Each year, and this year more than ever, people with disabilities, their families, advocates, and service providers come together in Annapolis to make sure their voices are heard. With proposed state budget cuts threatening critical community-based services, advocacy is not optional; it's essential.

Following DD Day, our community rallied at Lawyers Mall to speak directly to lawmakers, share real stories, and stand up for the services that allow people to live, work, and thrive in their communities.

Because when we raise our voices together, we drive change.

Today is the day! Fello at The Mall is officially open at the Annapolis Mall and the response has already been incredible.

In just our first week, we've hosted a community event, connected with 90+ community members, and supported several families through referrals to our Family Navigator. That's what access, connection, and community look like in action.

If you've been curious about Fello, our services, or how we support people with disabilities & their families, stop by and say hello. We're right here at the mall and can't wait to meet you.

See you at the mall!

In honor of Black History Month, we were grateful to welcome Bill Haley to Fello Easton for a powerful conversation about family, history, and the lasting impact of storytelling. Bill shared reflections on Roots, written by his grandfather, Alex Haley, as we mark the book's 50th anniversary.

It was a meaningful reminder of the importance of staying connected to our roots and how stories passed down through generations help preserve history, identity, and culture. Family stories don't just shape personal history they help all of us better understand where we come from and how we move forward together.

Stories matter. History matters. And sharing them keeps our collective story alive.

Thank you, Bill!

Construction is in the homestretch at The Laura House, our mansion-style, 7-unit apartment building coming to the heart of Easton.

This is true infill, built within Easton's historic district to match the character of the neighborhood around it. No sprawl. No compromise on design. Just thoughtful density where it's needed most.

At Fello, it's all about connection, individuality, and coming together for a purpose bigger than ourselves.

Families know the moment when a hard choice feels impossible.

Pay the bills. Put food on the table. Or find the therapy that could change your child's life.

The Family Fund exists to bridge that gap.

Through this fund, families raising children with disabilities can access life-changing therapies and supports that are often not covered by insurance. Equine therapy. Music therapy. Speech therapy. Specialty equipment. Support that improves quality of life and opens doors to new possibilities.

In this video, you'll hear from parents like Theadora, Christa, Rachael, and Giovanni, who share what it meant to receive support when they needed it most. Relief. Hope. A lighter load. And most importantly, the chance for their children to thrive.

100% of every dollar raised through the Family Fund goes directly to families.
Your generosity creates real impact, real progress, and ripple effects that last for years.

Over the past couple of months, we've been putting in the work and building our hooping skills at the Pip Moyer Recreation Center at Truxtun Park, in Annapolis.

Yesterday, we got to put all that hard work and practice to the test with a full game, and wow, did we show up!

We had an absolute blast showing off our skills, teamwork, and love for the game.

A huge thank you to the Annapolis Recreation & Parks team for coaching us and putting together such a great basketball program. Nothing but good vibes, great plays, and even better memories!
