This week our team travelled to Savannah, GA for a state visit!

State Visits are a powerful opportunity for functional partners and executive leadership from across the country to come together, dig deeper into the day-to-day operations of our ABA programs, align on strategy, and build actionable plans that set the stage for an exceptional year ahead. The collaboration, transparency, and forward-thinking in the room were exactly what this moment called for.

A huge thank you to our functional support partners for traveling in, leaning in, and showing up in such a meaningful way. This is what true partnership looks like.

What a way to close out the calendar year—on a motivational high and with so much momentum heading into what’s next. ✨

This Veterans Day, we’re proud to honor Jonathan Willemin, a U.S. Army veteran who served six years—including a year-long deployment to Iraq. His work in water purification (think In the Army Now with Pauly Shore!) and combat lifesaver school sparked a lifelong passion for medicine that guides his career today.

From patrolling where the Tigris and Euphrates meet to walking through the ancient ruins of Babylon, Johnathan describes his service as a surreal journey through history.

He credits the Army with teaching him adaptability and perseverance noting that “The mission is never linear—embrace the change and keep moving forward.”

His reminder for all of us this Veterans Day:
“We should learn to treat every human with such grace, because there is a reason for the way they present themselves or behave and not knowing that reason should not make us think differently of them that we would a veteran with the same issues.”

Thank you, Jonathan, for your service and your continued impact!
