✨💙 What an Incredible Night! 💙✨

This past Saturday, Prom was truly a night to remember! 🌟

From the moment our students arrived dressed in their finest, the room was filled with smiles, laughter, dancing, and pure joy. It was wonderful to see everyone celebrating, making memories, and shining bright on the dance floor.

Prom season is in full swing here at Life Adult Day Academy! 💜💚

Stay tuned, we will be posting more prom details soon!

"For Angie Penrose, few things mean more than seeing her daughter, Chloe, find meaning, joy, and acceptance in a place where she isn’t defined by her disability but celebrated for who she is as a human being.

That’s exactly what Chloe has found in Life Adult Day Academy or LADA, for the past 10 years. And through a partnership with Audiences Unlimited, that experience has become even richer—bringing music, creativity, and friendship into Chloe’s life in ways that have deeply touched her and her family.

“LADA provides an environment where Chloe is able to shine,” Angie said. “She has a wonderful social life there. It feels like a small extended family. At LADA, she’s able to be in a place where her disabilities vanish and she can just be herself.”

Chloe, 28, has cerebral palsy and is quadriplegic. She navigates life through a power chair and attends LADA three days a week. For Angie, one of the greatest gifts is knowing Chloe has a place to be with peers, build friendships, and enjoy life as a young adult.

My heart is truly full today ❤️

Thank you to everyone who donated, gave, and showed up to make our Pancake Breakfast such a success! From our family and friends to our incredible staff and parents who volunteered their time on Saturday, I am beyond grateful.

A special thank you to our amazing LADA moms and the Road Ravens: your energy, support, and willingness to jump in and help meant more than you know!

It takes a village, and this weekend was a perfect reminder of the incredible community that surrounds us. Days like this are exactly why we keep going… why we continue pushing forward to provide the best possible services at LADA.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you and God Bless you all 🙏🏾🥞
