Facebook Fun and Highlights
Fall means fresh air, pumpkin patches, and delicious dishes from our harvest! Our participants have been busy enjoying the season—getting creative outdoors, cooking with what we’ve grown, and even squeezing in some karaoke fun!

ABLE Parent Meeting
Join us for an informational Parent Meeting to learn more about IL ABLE, Savings for People with Disabilities.
During this one-hour meeting you will learn how people with disabilities and their families can save and invest their money in tax advantaged accounts and preserve benefits such as SSI, SSDI, and MEDICAID.
