Oh dear - one of our young visitors accidentally left a small friend behind. Rather than banish him to the cold sterility of the Lost and Found bin, we let him follow us around the agency and captured his day in photographs.

(If he looks like a much loved and familiar face, please reach out and let us know to put him aside for your return. Otherwise, we are putting him on the payroll. ♥️)

It's World Autism Awareness Day!

At Locust Street, we celebrate minds of all kinds and believe in creating spaces where people don’t have to change who they are just to feel accepted.

That starts with understanding, patience, and making space — giving people the room to communicate in their own way, honoring when the world feels overwhelming, and taking the time to truly listen.

That’s what acceptance looks like.

And we’re here for acceptance, not just awareness. ∞

April Fools’ Day is full of jokes, pranks, and reasons to laugh and honestly, sometimes that’s exactly what we need. A moment to breathe, reset, or not take everything so seriously.

And sometimes, it’s not that easy.

Whatever today looks like for you — light, heavy, or somewhere in between — we hope you find something that makes you smile. 🌿
