There is something truly transformative about the holiday season. It’s a time when the world slows down just enough for us to focus on what matters most: community, connection, and joy. Recently, Living Resources hosted a holiday celebration that embodied those values perfectly. We were thrilled to welcome over 60 individuals, family members, and staff from across multiple counties, representing our Supportive Living, After-School, and Community Habilitation programs.
The energy in the room was palpable from the moment the doors opened. For many of our attendees, this event was more than just a party, it was a chance to reconnect with friends from other programs and meet new faces from neighboring counties. It was a beautiful reminder that while our programs are diverse, we are all part of one supportive Living Resources family.
No holiday celebration is complete without a great meal, and this year’s spread did not disappoint! Guests enjoyed a large catered lunch followed by a dessert table that was almost too pretty to eat (though we certainly tried!).
The excitement reached a fever pitch when Santa arrived. He took the time to sit with everyone, pose for photos, and listen to holiday wishes.
The most touching moments of the day came from our After-School Program students. Many of the kids arrived with handwritten letters and colorful drawings in hand, ready to hand-deliver them to the Big Man in Red. Watching the joy and wonder on their faces as Santa accepted their letters was a powerful reminder of why we do what we do, creating spaces where everyone can experience the magic of the season without barriers.
Events like these are vital to our mission at Living Resources. They provide an opportunity for the individuals we support, whether they are navigating life with I/DD or recovering from a brain injury, to socialize, celebrate their independence, and feel the warmth of a community that truly cares.
We want to extend a massive thank you to our dedicated staff who organized the event, the families who joined us, and most importantly, the incredible individuals who make our programs so vibrant.
