National Inclusion Day is on October 10th, and it’s an opportunity for all of us to reflect the significance of inclusion. This day is all about embracing, supporting, and celebrating the diverse differences in our daily lives. In self-direction, inclusion and community engagement play a vital role in achieving a self-determined life. Those who practice self-direction often experience a boost in motivation, enhanced quality of life, and a stronger sense of belonging in their communities. At Lakeland Care, we empower our members to take charge of their services and supports, facilitating greater community inclusion. Our mission aligns perfectly with the spirit of National Inclusion Day, making this day even more special to us.
