In this “Inside Dungarvin Homes” story, we feature a Minnesota group home where engagement is the name of the game! The support team keeps the residents busy with fun activities and plenty of opportunities to get out into the community.

“Whenever I walk through the door at this house, there’s always some form of engagement going on,” says Operational Manager Alex Trenary.

Recently, you may have seen lots of #2016 posts... people sharing what they were up to 10 years ago.

At Dungarvin in 2016, we acquired North Carolina services plus additional services in Indiana, adding around 1,000 employees to our total workforce!
At the same time, our mission statement evolved to what it is today: “To Respect and Respond to the Choices of People in Need of Supports.”

We’re thankful to be able to provide supports 10 years later, and we hope to be doing the same in 2036!

❄ This year's Saint Paul Winter Carnival in Minnesota is off to an incredible start... even with temperatures as low as -19 F!

This weekend featured the knighting of some of the individuals we serve, their chance at being featured in a Minnesota Wild game, and the opportunity to see Rice Park decorated.

It's extra special to share this experience with our founders, Diane and Tim Madden, and all the staff and individuals we support who braved the extreme weather to come together to celebrate.

👉 A large group from the Dungarvin Oregon team headed to the Oregon State Capitol alongside providers from across the state and our partners at Oregon Resource Association.

The team showed up to advocate against LC 38, SEIU's Workforce Standards Board, raising concerns about adding new layers of bureaucracy and regulatory uncertainty to a system that’s already stretched thin. Their message was simple: Oregon’s disability services system needs sustainable funding, workforce stability, and flexibility so providers can keep delivering individualized, community-based supports.

We are grateful for a passionate team willing to use their voices and their lived experience to stand up for the people we support and the workforce that makes this work possible.
