December in #EmploymentServices is a time we reflect on so many great stories from the last year. Let’s start with CrC—who is truly an inspiration. Seen here in 2 of her 3 jobs, CrC also attends school part-time and is a tireless advocate for change in the disability sector. Go CrC! 🤩❤️ #BOTY2025

One great thing about living on the west coast in a temperate climate is still being able to have fun outdoors (and it not being too cold…YET! 😂). Here’s JM from #HomeShare enjoying a little fishing! 🎣👍 #IslandLife #OutdoorFun #Fishing
