🌟 Together We Learn, Together We Lead! 🌟

At the beginning of this week, some of our leadership team - Tammy Jo, Kelsey, and Andrea - headed over to St. Cloud for the annual Minnesota Organization for Habilitation and Rehabilitation - MOHR Conference!

It was an incredible three days packed with learning and inspiration. Our team dove into deep conversations about 245D compliance, innovative workforce ideas for rural Minnesota, and finding new, specialized ways to support the amazing individuals we serve -including wonderful sessions on Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD) support.

But the absolute highlight? The conference kicked off with a Makers Market, where they set up a booth with a beautiful spread of our Uniquely DAC artisan products. They were so excited to share all about the amazing items with people from different places!

They had the best time connecting with so many supportive folks who stopped by to shop, learn about our program, and ask all about our worm farm and castings! 🪱✨

The ladies returned to Aitkin with full hearts, fresh ideas, and a renewed passion for helping the amazing folks we serve.

DAC is thankful for everyone who stopped by to say hello and support our mission!

If you need any tips on your technique, Isaiah is the man to ask!

Our sweet Pastor Sarah shared something so special with us during the service. She was very passionate about celebrating Pentecost - the beautiful holiday that marks the birth of the church.

She let us in on a little secret: Pentecost is actually her absolute favorite holiday! Just listening to her talk about it brought so much joy into the room. Her excitement was completely contagious, and it was such a beautiful, happy reminder of why we gather together.

We are all so incredibly grateful she shared that piece of her heart (and a piece of cake) with us!❤️

Hey !!

We are sitting here looking at the growing pile of door prizes for the big Sundae Funday! event, and our hearts are just full. We have some absolutely amazing prizes coming in from all over, and the generosity of everyone donating has been incredible! 🎁

Just when we thought it couldn’t get any better, the wonderful folks right here at Growth Innovations stepped up and made a huge donation specifically to help us purchase even more prizes to add to the stash! We are so unbelievably grateful for their incredible local support.

With their generous contribution, we will soon b e shopping for some extra special goodies... but we want to keep them a little bit of a secret for now! 😉

👇 Drop a comment below and tell us: What do you think the new purchased prizes are going to be?! Give us your best guesses!

P.S. We would still love to showcase more of our amazing hometown pride! If you are a local business owner and would like to donate an item, gift card, or basket to the lineup, we would be so thrilled to feature you. Drop us a message - we'd love to partner with you!! ❤️

Teamwork makes the dream work!
Look at these two! Bryan stepped in to give Amy a helping hand with her puzzle at DACWORKS, and we just can't get over how darling this moment is.

Whether it's finding that one tricky corner piece or just sharing a good laugh, everything is better when we do it together. We are so lucky to have a community full of friends who always look out for one another.

Keep shining, you two!

Happy Monday Everyone! ❤️ It is definitely a happy one for all our friends at DAC-Mart...

We have some incredibly exciting news to share, and our hearts are just overflowing with gratitude.

Lee and the entire DAC-Mart crew want to send the biggest, most heartfelt thank you to Tammy Jo and the rest of our amazing DAC Board. 🚐✨

To say we desperately needed a new van is an understatement, and the Board stepped up in a huge way to make it happen. This new ride means the world to us - it keeps our crew moving, connects us to our community, and makes our daily adventures so much safer and easier.

Thank you, Tammy Jo, and thank you to every single board member for loving and supporting us the way you do.
We are so, so blessed!
