💜 A Sweet Surprise for Our Waiver Team! 🍪
Our GRADD Waiver Department received an incredibly thoughtful surprise from a family they serve — some delicious treats from Pinky’s Desserts along with a heartfelt note of appreciation.
Our team never expects recognition for the work they do, but gestures like this mean more than you know. Knowing that our staff has made a difference for a family is the greatest thank you we could receive.

💙 CELEBRATING NATIONAL SENIOR CENTER MONTH! 💚
September is National Senior Center Month, and we’re proud to celebrate the incredible senior centers serving communities across the GRADD region!
Every day, our senior centers provide much more than a place to gather. They help keep older adults engaged, active, healthy and connected while providing programs and services that support independence and help seniors age with grace.
A special shoutout to our Senior Services Directors and their teams, who go the extra mile each and every day to make it all happen. Your dedication to the seniors in your communities makes a difference that can’t be measured.
Thank you for all you do! 💙💚
