The Olmstead decision helped affirm the right of individuals with disabilities to live, work, and participate in their communities.

Community inclusion is not just a service goal. It is a civil right.

At Journeys, we are proud to support opportunities for individuals to build meaningful lives in the communities they call home.

🏁 For the past six years, Ray and Jason, a Caregiver Tennessee team member, have shared a special tradition—attending the NASCAR race in Nashville together!

For Ray, race day is about more than just the competition. He enjoys walking around before the race, picking out a new t-shirt, meeting new people, and experiencing the excitement of the cars flying by.

"I like how loud and fast the cars are," Ray shared. "I look forward to the race every year—it's my favorite thing to do."

When it comes to drivers, Ray is a loyal fan of #20 Christopher Bell. "He's a clean driver and doesn't wreck people on purpose," Ray said.

Community experiences and meaningful relationships are an important part of living a full and connected life, and this annual tradition is one Ray looks forward to all year long.

We're grateful for team members like Jason who help create opportunities for connection, friendship, and unforgettable memories.

Today we honor Juneteenth and reflect on freedom, resilience, history, and the continued importance of equity and inclusion.

Juneteenth is a reminder that progress matters, community matters, and every person deserves dignity, opportunity, and respect.

Compassionate care is about more than helping with daily needs. It is about patience, dignity, trust, and truly seeing the person in front of you.

At Journeys, DDA we believe every individual deserves support that feels respectful, personal, and empowering. Whether it is building routines, learning new skills, or simply sharing a meaningful moment, care is strongest when it is rooted in kindness.

Wellness can look like learning something new, building confidence, creating healthy routines, or gaining greater independence in everyday life. 💙

From preparing meals and developing life skills to building routines and exploring personal goals, small steps can lead to meaningful growth over time.

What’s one life skill or activity that makes you feel confident and independent? 👇

A shared laugh, a supportive conversation, spending time together in the community, or simply knowing someone cares can make a lasting impact in a person’s life.

At Journeys, DDA we believe connection and belonging are such important parts of building confidence, joy, and meaningful community experiences. Everyone deserves friendships that help them feel seen, valued, encouraged, and included.

Today is a great reminder to celebrate the people who make life brighter.

Tag a friend who always makes you smile or supports you through life’s ups and downs. 👇
