Did you know Choices for People serves individuals across 27 Missouri counties? ๐Ÿ“

From Audrain to Washington County, and many communities in between, our reach extends well beyond our home office in Rolla.

Depending on location and eligibility, Choices for People provides Community, Employment, Day and Residential Services designed to support independence, connection, personal goals and meaningful participation in the community.

Different communities. Different goals. Different lives.

One belief at the center of it all: everyone deserves opportunities and choices.

You may hear the term โ€œperson-centeredโ€ a lot in disability services.

But what does it actually mean?

It starts with something pretty simple:

The person is at the center.

Their goals.
Their preferences.
Their interests.
Their choices.
Their life.

At Choices for People, support isnโ€™t about deciding what someone else should want. Itโ€™s about listening, providing resources and support, and helping our individuals make informed choices about the lives they want to build.

Because independence doesnโ€™t mean doing everything alone.

Sometimes it means having the right support to make your own decisions.

Pizza tastes even better when you make it yourself! ๐Ÿ•๐Ÿ’™

Ryan and Carolyn Buschjost recently stopped by and spent some time with our individuals, teaching them how to make their own pizzas completely from scratch.
From preparing the dough to adding toppings and putting it all together, everyone had a chance to learn something new, get hands-on, and enjoy the finished product afterward.

A big thank you to Ryan and Carolyn for sharing their time, skills, and plenty of pizza-making fun with us!

Weโ€™re pretty sure this is one lesson no one minded practicing. ๐Ÿ•๐Ÿ˜Š

October is National Disability Employment Awareness Month. ๐Ÿ’™

This yearโ€™s theme is โ€œCelebrating Value and Talent,โ€ and we think that message is worth talking about.

Employment is about so much more than earning a paycheck. A good job can create opportunities for independence, confidence, connection, growth, and being an active part of the community.

At Choices for People, our Employment Services are designed around the individual, from exploring career interests and preparing for work to finding employment and receiving support on the job.

Because everyone deserves the opportunity to discover where their talents can take them.

This month, weโ€™re celebrating the value, talent, and contributions of individuals with disabilities in workplaces throughout our communities.

A little kindness goes a long way! ๐Ÿ’™

Our individuals had a great time delivering snacks to members of the community and sharing a little extra joy along the way.

Moments like these are a great reminder that community is built through connection, kindness, and showing up for one another. We love seeing our individuals out and about, making meaningful connections and brightening someoneโ€™s day.

Sometimes itโ€™s the simple gestures that leave the biggest impact.

Itโ€™s World Smile Day! ๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ’™

Around here, we have plenty of smiles to choose from.

Whether itโ€™s a fun community outing, time spent with friends, trying something new, or just one of those everyday moments that turns into a great memory, thereโ€™s usually a reason to smile somewhere at Choices for People.

So today, weโ€™re sharing a few of our favorites. ๐Ÿ˜„

Hereโ€™s your challenge for World Smile Day: do one little thing today that makes someone else smile.

We think thatโ€™s a pretty good way to start the weekend.
