SJI staff enjoyed a holiday party this week filled with fun, laughter, and joy!

We wore our best holiday jammies and played a hilarious round of white elephant featuring plenty of silly gifts. Most importantly, we took a break from our workday to truly celebrate one another while enjoying delicious Cracker Barrel and homemade desserts!

We wish all of our SJI staff and alumni a beautiful and safe holiday season! 🎄🤶🏻🎁
