Thank you to the Joplin Fire Department for visiting our Joplin Day Program and teaching an engaging fire safety lesson! 🧯

Firefly clients had a great time learning more about how to stay safe, ask important questions, and get a closer look at the tools and gear firefighters use to protect our community.

We’re so grateful for your time, service, and support!

Caregiver burnout doesn’t show up in one dramatic moment. It builds over time. If you’re focused on caring for someone else, it’s easy to miss the signs in yourself.

Here are a few red flags to watch for:

😴 You’re tired no matter how much you sleep
😣 You feel anxious, irritable, or numb
📅 You cancel your own appointments and plans
🧠 You feel like you’re losing focus or patience
💬 You’ve stopped talking about your own needs or feelings

Sound familiar? You’re not alone, and you don’t have to wait until it gets worse.

During National Family Caregiver's month, or anytime you need support, take a breath. Check in with a mental health care provider. You deserve care too.

Work offers more than a paycheck; it sparks confidence, purpose, and independence. ✨

During National Disability Employment Awareness Month, we celebrate the skills and contributions of workers with disabilities as we move toward a future where every workplace says yes to opportunity.

Do you know a workplace that says yes? Please share it in the comments!

The Joplin Day Program knows that water fights are fun and so much more!

They’re about belly laughs that hurt your cheeks, connections that feel like sunshine, and the freedom of knowing you belong.

Joy isn’t extra. It’s at the heart of everything we do and what keeps us coming back together, day after day. 💦✨

Our El Dorado Springs Day Program has been busy making memories!

We loved crafting for the Fourth of July, volunteering in the community, exploring the Missouri Institute of Natural Science, and enjoying a day at the lake. Whatever the adventure, it’s always brighter because we’re together. ✨
