Happy Fourth of July! We’d like to extend hearty congratulations to member Marcus from our Nashville Center for recently passing the Illinois Constitution test! He is one step closer to earning his GED, and our staff continues to support him in reaching his employment and education goals. Way to go, Marcus! Please join us in giving him a hand. #EnvisionProud #FourthofJuly #congratulations #educationgoals #adulteducation #successstory #peoplewithdisabilities #communitysupport

Bricks are being laid at the Envision Unlimited DreamHome, our ADA-compliant group home in the Auburn Gresham neighborhood for seniors with disabilities to age in place and continue living a life of choice, independence and inclusion! We’re thrilled to be on track to have residents move in later this year. Many thanks to the International Union of Bricklayers and Allied Craftworkers, Henry Bros. Co. and JLK Architects for their work so far! #EnvisionProud #EnvisionInAction #DreamHome #seniorswithdisabilities #communityliving #aginginplace #makingadifference #accessibleliving #seniorcare #disabilitysupport #homesweethome #seniorliving #bricklaying

We’re thrilled to share that we’re expanding our geographic and service reach to support more people in need in Central Illinois! Through a recent consolidation, supportive housing organization Bluestem Housing Partners joins the Envision Unlimited family. With the acquisition of Bluestem’s residential units, we now welcome more than 200 residents in 121 housing units in Springfield, Normal, Tuscola and Atwood, Illinois. "We believe supportive housing extends far beyond just a place to live, particularly for people with disabilities and mental health challenges," says Mark McHugh, Envision Unlimited President and CEO.
