A quick look inside the sensory room we added to our Accessible Elections community event.

Along with hands-on training using accessible voting machines, we created this quiet space filled with calming tools, fidgets, and one very laid-back dinosaur to help participants stay relaxed and focused.

The goal was simple: make sure everyone learning to use the equipment had a comfortable place to regroup. Inclusion isn’t an add-on. It’s the standard. 💜🗳

Epilepsy is a long-term brain condition that triggers recurring seizures when the brain’s electrical signals misfire.

It affects people of every age, background, and gender. Often the exact cause isn’t identified, but possible contributors include genetics, head injuries, stroke, or infections.

Seizures can cause a brief loss of awareness, involuntary movements, confusion, or other changes in behavior. Medicines, and in some cases surgery, can help control seizures for most people with epilepsy.💜

Our Consumer Independence Program participants spent time helping deliver food through Meals on Wheels, putting care into action when it matters most. These are critical times for many in our community, and seeing our group step up with heart and good energy is a reminder of what support really looks like.

A little kindness on the front steps can go a long way. Fun Friday feels even better when it’s fueled by service. 💜
