We are deeply grateful to Grace Episcopal Church, St. Paul’s Campus, in Ossining, New York for the generosity and support recently gifted to our Day Community Opportunities Program (DCOP). Boxes of materials, ready to be used in craft projects, which were being stored on the church’s second floor, are being donated for use by our participants.
“We are happy to support you as you support others,” writes the Rev. Hal Roark. Assistant Director of Day Services for the Southern Region Donna King, calls the donation “a true blessing.”
The church is also providing DCOP with access of its building and grounds, including its picnic area and pickle ball court. Donna says Westchester and Rockland County DCOP participants will be the main ones using these facilities, but Orange County participants may have some activities based at the church in the future. The donated supplies will be available to all Southern DCOP programs.
Thank you Grace Episcopal Church for your partnership! It is community-minded organizations, businesses, and places of worship like yours that make us stronger and help us promote maximum inclusion and integration for the individuals we support.

As #AutismAcceptanceMonth continues, we celebrate improved access to screening and services. 2020 was the first time the percentage of 8 year old Asian, Hispanic, and Black children diagnosed with Autism was higher than their White peers. A diagnosis can be the first step towards support! #autismawarenessmonth

How's this for positive, local community involvement? Micayla M. from our Site-Based Day Habilitation Program recently chatted with Chief Elaine Rudzinski and an officer from the East Greenbush Police Department about public safety! She left with a teddy bear, coloring pages, and stickers. Thank you so much, officers, for all that you do!
