For some it may seem completely normal to leave the house, but for John, leaving and being social, has not come naturally.
Spring is in the air and, if you're anything like me, that means it's time clean out the closets and other areas of the house to get rid of the things we don't need! It feels so good to fill bags of items we no longer have a need for, and it feels even better to donate them to benefit people in need. That's where EPI comes in!
We provided education on Autism, specifically, what it means, what to expect, and most importantly, how to appropriately interact.
When the diagnosis of Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is made, we are relieved, knowing something can be done, but with the disease comes uncertainty. It not only affects our bodies, it can change everything, setting the stage for “ambiguous loss”, our loss is “unclear, indefinite, vague”, and it cannot be resolved or cured.
As 2017 draws to a close, we at Exceptional Persons, Inc. (EPI) are taking time to reflect on all we have been able to accomplish this year along with the help of our great community. We have been blessed by so many who faithfully give and allow us to serve those who are in need.
To fulfill someone's holiday wish may not seem like much sometimes, but for someone who may not otherwise receive a gift, it's everything. That single gift lets them know that someone in the community is thinking about them. And honestly, is there any better feeling than giving the exact gift on someone's list and making their day?
Join us in celebrating our 60th anniversary with a free picnic and night at the ballpark on Friday, August 4th.
On May 21, 1957, EPI became incorporated to provide program planning, service coordination, and advocacy for people with disabilities. What was started by a determined few, is now an organization serving over 375 individuals. One thing remains the same, the people we serve are at the heart of what we do.
Congratulations to EPI's Executive Director, Chris Sparks, who was recently inducted in the ANCOR (American Network of Community Options and Resources) Foundation Legacy Leaders Circle!
As evidence of our substantial commitment to the health of people supported, EPI has been awarded the Gold Award for Health Leadership Excellence by Mainstay/My25.
Reaching a new milestone - our 60th anniversary - causes us to pause and reflect on the experiences and people we've had the good fortune to meet along with way.
There is no better way to celebrate the holidays than by giving to others. The feeling you get when watching someone open the perfect gift you found or knowing you gave a gift to someone who wouldn't normally receive one is heartwarming and hard to match.
Join us in congratulating Chris Sparks, Executive Director, on celebrating 25 years with EPI!
