In 2024, the program served over 350 clients, offering individualized counseling, goal setting, and career exploration. Clients received support with job placement and retention strategies, on-the-job training, and access to necessary work-related items such as uniforms, tools, and other essential equipment. Additionally, the program distributed over 500 assistive devices, empowering beneficiaries to increase independence, improve daily functioning, and pursue long-term success in employment or education.

In 2024, the program served over 600 individuals, offering assistance for medical co-pays, therapies, medications, and hospital bills. The program also supported the purchase of medical supplies such as adult diapers, sanitary pads, tubing, and other daily-use items essential to ongoing care. Additionally, clients received medical equipment including wheelchairs, braces, and cranial helmets, along with accessibility modifications such as ramps, adaptive showers, and home safety improvements.

One highlight of the program was the inclusion of art therapy, which provided caregivers with a creative outlet to process emotions, reduce anxiety, and build community through shared experience. The program also offered financial assistance for respite care, helping caregivers take essential breaks while ensuring their loved ones continued to receive support. Additional virtual activities focused on self-care and emotional connection, further helping caregivers build resilience and maintain their own health while caring for others.
