New Learning Opportunities and Recent Updates

MHDS is pleased to announce a continuing series of learning opportunities on topics beneficial to the persons we serve, their families and others who support them.  We kicked off last month with a session focused on the ECF Choices Program and Jobs Fading Plans.  On June 14, the series continues with a session devoted to understanding the concepts of Dignity of Risk and how to strengthen Self Determination and Self Advocacy.  All sessions are open to anyone interested in attending.  Please refer to each downloadable flyer under the Learning Opportunities tab in the sidebar for more complete information.  Be sure and check back for future events.

 

 

We’re grateful for the support we received from the community during May when we were raising money on Monday nights at Redbones! We always have a fabulous time and enjoy the company of those who come out to eat with us. We took some pictures throughout the month and you can take a look at our fun times below.

We also added another success story to our “Supported Employment Spotlight,” so head on over there where we’re bragging about David!
