💛 25 years of friendship!

Kristin and staff member Lisa have been working together for 25 years, and at this point, it’s safe to say they’re more like family than staff and the person supported.

Long-term relationships like this can make such a difference in the lives of the people we support. Having someone who knows you, understands what matters to you, encourages you to try something new, and celebrates your accomplishments can be incredibly meaningful.

Progress programs are about helping people build lives filled with independence, connection, friendship, and the things that make them happy. Here's to 25 years of Kristin and Lisa, and many more adventures together! 🥰

It's hard to believe summer is winding down! One thing's for sure - Evelyn and Companion Pam made the most of it. They had a great time this summer traveling to Gatlinburg for a little vacay! They had a great time seeing attractions, going swimming, and enjoying summer vibes. Progress programs help people live their best lives, independently and with happiness - and that includes vacations!

Justin is a little bit of a country music fan if you couldn't tell, and he had a great time visiting the Country Music Hall of Fame with staff Joel Paddon. At Progress, supporting independence means helping people spend time doing what they love, exploring their interests, and making memories along the way.

Technology is a tool that can have a true impact on the lives of the people we support. Here Lou is communicating with the help of an iPad. The iPad helps Lou communicate his feelings and needs, which helps staff Matt Vollman provide even more effective supports tailored to Lou. This and other enabling technology tools help bring maximum independence to many.

Rico had a lovely visit with his mom! Family connections are a vital component of health, happiness and independence. Although support staff are often considered "family" to the people we support, we are grateful for strong family connections and the difference they make in the lives of the people we serve!

Kristin is a huge fan of exercise and nature, and when a new community center opened nearby, she had to check it out. We talk a lot about independence and happiness as part of our mission, but health is a component too! Progress staff support individuals in all matters of their health, and that includes encouraging healthy lifestyles.

When it's too hot to do much outside, the library is a welcome retreat! Jureon, Kodiyon, and Jabari got their library cards and are taking advantage of this great community resource. MAPs participants embark on a variety of community activities that help them connect further with the places they live. The library is a great connection to have!

Diane continues to gain valuable experience at Smart Art + Craft Supplies! She is assisting customers, learning the check out process, bagging supplies and so much more. Her journey to independence continues, thanks to the employment training offered at social enterprise Smart!

All dressed up and someplace to go! Alex looked sharp as he got ready to attend a wedding recently. Progress programs support people to achieve independence, health and happiness, and that includes social connections like supporting a friend getting married!
