Making a PB&J sandwich might sound simple, but in our recent orientation training session, it served as a powerful exercise in empathy, communication, and person-centered support.

Our team members participated in a hands-on activity designed to experience how every individual we support communicates differently. By learning how to guide step-by-step tasks with dignity, understanding, and clarity, our staff practice living out two of our core agency values every day:

💙 Empowerment: Supporting individuals to gain confidence, build everyday life skills, and prepare meals independently.
⭐ Excellence: Continuous learning and commitment to understanding the unique communication styles of everyone we support.

We’re proud to welcome compassionate team members who are dedicated to helping those we support thrive! 🙌💡

A huge thank you to our incredible friends at Regeneron for participating in their annual "Day for Doing Good" at Living Resources! This day is an annual, week-long global employee volunteer initiative where workers step away from their labs, offices, and manufacturing sites to give back to local communities.

Volunteers spent their time refreshing and repainting the interiors of two Living Resources residential homes, creating bright, welcoming spaces that truly feel like home. When asked why he gives back, one volunteer happily stated, “It strengthens the community and has a positive change for Living Resources.”

By generously sharing their time and energy, the Regeneron team showed what community spirit is all about—brightening the lives of the individuals we support, one brush stroke at a time!

True community strength built through accessible opportunities comes alive through the ongoing partnership between Living Resources and Honest Weight Food Co-op. By matching dedicated job seekers with employers who value diverse talents, this collaboration demonstrates that inclusive hiring is far more than a fulfilling policy, it is a cornerstone of a vibrant, compassionate, and effective workforce.

We're back with the Art Program and continuing their journey into the art of cooking! This week, they learned how to make spaghetti, meatballs, and garlic bread in the Honest Weight Food Co-op teaching kitchen.

Thank you so much to Chef Donnie for generously donating his time to teach the class, and to Honest Weight Food Co-op for donating the space so the individuals we support can explore their love for cooking while learning practical skills for an independent life.
