From our team to your family, we at Advancing Opportunities would like to take the time to wish you Merry Christmas, Happy Kwanzaa, and a Happy Chanukkah. Events to celebrate these holidays of light have been under way for our consumers in many venues. What they have in common is that everyone shares in the joy. We present a selection below:
Our Residences
Our Hiawatha group home hosted a party to which residents of other homes were invited.
Adults’ and Parents’ Night Out (Northwestern New Jersey)
Joseph shows off his gingerbread house with pride.
Stephanie took her time to make her gingerbread house exactly as she wanted it.
Weekend Recreation (Northeastern New Jersey)
Staff and consumers shared in the joy at the Weekend Recreation 2017 holiday party.
Danica Lafortune, Weekend Recreation Coordinator, shares holiday joy with one of her charges.
In addition to the above, our Parents’ Night Out program in southern New Jersey on December 23 will host its Family Holiday Party for consumers; families are invited, too! Our direct-support staff has been holding holiday decorating contests in each of the group homes throughout the state. So, from all of us to all of you, Happy Holidays!
