Today is International Women's Day, and we wanted to take a moment to recognize the intersection between women's history and disability history. Most importantly, we want to honor the contributions made by important women (such as Judy Heumann, pictured here) in the fight for equal rights and opportunities for disabled folks. We hope to honor their legacies and continue to show up for women--disabled and able-bodied alike!--in our daily lives.

You can learn more about Judy and other important figures in the Disability Rights movement at https://set-works.com/7-women-who-shaped-the-disability-rights-movement/

March is Developmental Disabilities Awareness Month, a campaign typically led by the National Association of Councils on Developmental Disabilities (NACDD) to recognize and honor the lives and communities of DD folks in America. Last year, their theme, "We're Here All Year" expanded upon the month to remind everyone of the daily, lived experiences of those with developmental disabilities. Keep an eye on our Facebook and Instagram pages to see if/when a theme is chosen for this year!

At Penn Residential, we know the importance of meeting, knowing, and forming community with all of our neighbors, including and especially those with disabilities! Throughout the month of March, we'll be posting more in honor of DDAM, so stay tuned! 💙

Love is in the air and smiles are all around! Last Friday, we celebrated Valentine's Day with a party at the program office. There was pizza and crafts, a balloon arch, and even an appearance from Kris's RC car! 💕

Scroll to the end to see Jaxx being pied in the face (with french onion dip due to an unfortunate lack of whipped cream in the office 😅 )
