McClendon Center

Joy filled the room today as our Day Program came together for its annual holiday celebration with clients, staff, and friends. 🎄✨
From music and dancing to warm meals and thoughtful gifts, the day was a beautiful reminder of what community, care, and belonging look like in action.

There were plenty of smiles, lots of laughter, and moments of connection that will make the season bright.

At McClendon Center, stepping up when others need it most is at the heart of who we are.

This season, we launched our very first Adopt-a-Client Family initiative, and yesterday our team wrapped gifts for a family of five that we’re supporting. It’s one way we show our neighbors they are cared for and supported during moments of real need.

We’re grateful to our dedicated staff and supporters who made this possible and look forward to continuing this effort for more families in our community.

We’re still collecting contributions to help us reach more families this season.

When Octavia first came to McClendon Center, she was facing homelessness, deep depression, and isolation. With consistent care and support, she rebuilt her life, step by step. Today, she has stability, housing, and hope for the future.

Stories like Octavia’s are possible because of community support. As we close out the year, your generosity helps ensure our clients continue receiving the care and stability they need to heal and move forward.

Our Thanksgiving Blessing Baskets are packed and ready to be delivered!

Today, our Core Services Agency team had a great time coming together to order, shop, load, and assemble these special baskets for McClendon Center clients!

Thanks to the generous support of Wegmans, over the next few days we’ll be delivering baskets to 19 families and 3 senior clients.

Each basket is filled with a Thanksgiving dinner, essentials, and warm touches our clients need to enjoy a comforting holiday. We even added a little fall décor to make each basket extra special. 🙂

If you’d like to help us continue supporting clients with winter essentials throughout the holiday season, you can contribute items directly through our client wish list: https://www.amazon.com/registries/gl/guest-view/1D1JCDJ7RZ7RC
