This week, we're excited to spotlight Ryan!

Ryan has been a part of the Concerned, Inc. family since 2019. He currently lives in one of our waiver homes and attends our Adult Day Services program, where he enjoys spending time with friends and participating in community activities.

One of Ryan's favorite things to do is go on outings, especially trips to the movies! When it's time to grab a bite to eat, you'll often find him choosing his favorite restaurant, the Bucksnort.

Ryan is also a huge sports fan. Whether it's football, basketball, baseball, or the latest sports news, Ryan always seems to know what's happening. If you need an update on the sports world, he's definitely the person to ask!

We are proud to have Ryan as part of Concerned, Inc. and love seeing the enthusiasm and positivity he brings each day.
