It's always affirming to receive such positive feedback! Thank you, Mary!

Dear Eileen,
My son Adamu recently turned three and officially aged out of Early Intervention and I wanted to take a moment to share my sincere appreciation for his therapist, Nicole Zambell.

Adamu has been receiving Early Intervention services since he was 18 months old. Although our experience with his initial therapist was not the right fit for our family, you quickly reassigned us with Nicole and having her step in as his new therapist made such a tremendous difference. She has truly been a blessing to our family, and the progress Adamu has made under her care has been remarkable. His speech has improved significantly, and it has been so rewarding to see his growth and development.

Nicole has been patient, caring, dedicated, and an absolute pleasure to work with. It was clear that she genuinely cared about Adamu’s progress and wanted to see him succeed. Her impact on his development has meant so much to our family, and I am incredibly grateful that he had the opportunity to work with her.

As we close this chapter of our Early Intervention journey, I wanted to ensure that Nicole’s outstanding work and dedication were recognized. She has made a lasting, positive impact on Adamu, and I hope she knows how much her efforts are appreciated.

Warm Regards,
Mary

We had our first session of our eight-week pickleball program with our coach, Ray. He led a fabulous session and introduced the individual to the basic skills of playing pickleball. We learned how to properly position and grip the paddle, as well as how to hit the balls using underhand and overhead techniques.
The final drill was the most challenging as participants practiced running toward the ball and hitting it over the net. Throughout the session, everyone also helped w/cleanup by picking up the pickleballs and returning them to the basket when the balls ran out. The individuals enjoyed the session, participated in the activities, and had a great time learning new skills. Everyone is already looking forward to our next pickleball class! 🎉👏

🌿 A little fresh air, a lot of connection! Participants from Mountainside Day Program’s Room 3 enjoyed a visit to the Reeves-Reed Arboretum , exploring nature, enjoying the outdoors, and engaging with their community. 💙
With the right support, community outings create opportunities for independence, meaningful experiences, and inclusion beyond program walls. 🌳

Something mysterious is happening at The Arc of Union County…

On Friday, October 23, 2026, we'll gather for an unforgettable evening as we honor the extraordinary individuals and partners whose leadership, service, and commitment help advance our mission. This year's Awards Dinner will bring a little intrigue to the celebration with a whodunit-inspired masquerade experience, and an evening filled with surprises. 🎭✨

The honorees may be known. The reason for the celebration is no mystery. But when the masks go on… who knows what might unfold?
