We go live Friday June 26th. 🛍️
Erin's Place is back on Whatnot at noon for our live auction. Erin's Place is Thrive's thrift shop, and every dollar from the auction goes right back into the work we do helping people with disabilities live independently in central PA.
Here's how it works: you hop on the live stream, we hold up the items, you bid in real time. Housewares, finds, surprises. Show up, watch, grab something good, and you're funding the mission while you do it.

Federal Deadline for Airline Accommodations

Air travel should be safe, dignified, and accessible for everyone — including passengers who use wheelchairs and other mobility devices.

The U.S. Department of Transportation’s wheelchair rule was created to strengthen protections under the Air Carrier Access Act and address barriers that many travelers with disabilities still face, including unsafe transfers, mishandled wheelchairs, delayed assistance, and poor communication.

The rule sets stronger expectations for airlines, including safe and dignified assistance, improved employee training, better handling of wheelchairs and scooters, and clearer responsibilities when mobility devices are damaged or delayed.

For wheelchair users, a mobility device is not just luggage — it is freedom, independence, and daily access to the community.

While some enforcement provisions are still under federal review, the message is clear: accessible air travel matters. People with disabilities deserve to travel with dignity, safety, and equality.

At Thrive Center for Independent Living, we believe accessibility should never be treated as optional.

Baseball, fireworks, and a good reason to be in the stands. 🎆

Join us at the ballpark on Saturday, July 4th when the Harrisburg Senators take the field — and a portion of every ticket sold through Thrive comes right back to the work we do across Central PA. That means your night out helps your neighbors with disabilities live, work, and thrive in the community they call home. Same great game, same Fourth of July fireworks, a little extra meaning behind your seat.
