This past weekend, the Chautauqua I-Learn group attended Farm Day in Westfield, NY and had such a wonderful time! 🚜🍇

The group enjoyed watching the parade come down Main Street, seeing all the vintage farm tractors on display, and listening to live music. It was such a fun free community event with so many interesting things to experience. ✨

Thank you to the Concord Grape Belt Heritage Association and the Chautauqua County Antique Equipment Association for putting together such a wonderful event! 🧡

The New York State budget framework highlighted several key priorities, but the I/DD community cannot be overlooked as negotiations continue.

A full 4% TII is essential to protect services and support the workforce that shows up every day.

Please urge your lawmakers to prioritize increased funding for the I/DD community here: https://bit.ly/4tm0hhk

Governor Hochul is announcing the framework for the New York State budget, and the I/DD community is watching closely.

For thousands of New Yorkers with I/DD, this determines whether essential services remain stable, whether providers can retain staff, and whether people continue to receive the support they depend on daily.

New York has come too far to fall behind now. Tell legislators that a full 4% TII in the final budget is critical here: https://bit.ly/4tm0hhk

What an incredible night!

More than 200 supporters came together at Riff City Social for our first-ever Beyond Lip Sync Battle and together, we raised an incredible $42,000 for the Beyond Support Network Foundation.

Six teams. Countless memories. Unforgettable performances.

🏆 Hot Mess Express (Beyond Learning Center staff) brought the house down with Time Warp to take home Best Performance.
💰 Team Bene-Care led all teams with $5,400 raised.

From dollar-vote showdowns to a surprise $2,000 match, the energy in the room never stopped. Every dollar is going toward enhancing the performance area at Beyond Learning Center and creating more opportunities for creativity, confidence, and connection.

A huge THANK YOU to our presenting sponsor Bene-Care, our incredible hosts Vito Gigante and PUF, all six teams, our sponsors, and every single person who showed up, donated, and made this night special.

This was more than an event, it was a community coming together in the best way.

And we’re just getting started… 👀 2027 is already in the works.
