The Power of One: Giving Thanks for Community Members Who Share Their Gifts

We’re celebrating how one person’s gifts can make a big difference. For years, Mrs. Irma Knight-Gumbs has shared her passion for dental care with our residents, offering education, support, and essential supplies. Her kindness shows how a single act of giving can strengthen an entire community.

Sobriety Gives Us Back What Matters Most

Sobriety gives us the priceless ability to truly show up for the people we love. Inspired by Colin Farrell’s heartfelt reflection on how recovery allows him to be present for his son who lives with Angelman Syndrome, we explore how sobriety restores connection, clarity, and purpose. This season, we’re reflecting on the gift of being present — and why that’s something to be truly thankful for.

Back to School Sober

For sober students, peer pressure and the temptation to use again can hang over the new school year like a weight. However, with a some effort you can have a school year filled with academic achievements, a great social life, and no relapse!
