Registration is open for this first-ever Parent University for Families of Children with Disabilities. It's never too early to get the supports you need in school. It will help planning for the transition to life after school, which may include NMDVR programs to assist with entering the workforce or post-secondary education.
We had a blast yesterday at our Inclusive Employer Luncheon where speakers Ruthie Robbins, the Board President of The Calvin P. Horn Foundation and Mandy's Farm, Anthony Harkness, the Area 7 Program Manager at NM Division of Vocational Rehabilitation, and City Councilor Nichole Rogers, spoke about the importance of National Disability Employment Awareness Month.

An amazing team from Bank of America volunteered last Saturday at our Lakeview location and transformed the backyard of our residential home! Thanks to their hard work, the individuals we support now have a beautiful, clean, and organized outdoor space to relax in and enjoy the beautiful weather and stunning New Mexico sunsets. We are so grateful for your dedication and generosity, Bank of America! #BofAVolunteers #MandysFarmNM #Disability #Inclusion #Connection #Growth #Community #NewMexico #Volunteers ID: Picture one is a group photo of the volunteers standing in the backyard in front of the house.
