At Durand, we believe that milestones matter—and that every student deserves the opportunity to celebrate life's special moments surrounded by the people who care about them most.

Our annual Prom is more than just a dance. It's an evening where students, families, guardians, and staff come together to share a meal, enjoy music, make memories, and celebrate the accomplishments of our incredible students. These moments create lasting memories not only for our students, but for the parents and families who have supported them every step of the way.

For many families, opportunities like these are about more than dressing up and taking pictures. They are a chance to experience the joy, connection, and traditions that make milestones so meaningful. Seeing our students shine on the dance floor, laugh with friends, and celebrate alongside loved ones reminds us why creating inclusive and supportive communities is so important.

Thank you to everyone who helped make this year's Durand Prom a special evening filled with smiles, laughter, and memories that will last a lifetime.

Building stronger, more inclusive communities starts with understanding.

On May 19 and 26, Durand was proud to partner with the Mt. Laurel Police Department to provide specialized training on interacting with individuals with autism and other developmental disabilities. Durand COO Jim Myers and School Principal Jennifer Amoroso led the sessions for command staff and officers, focusing on recognizing signs of autism, effective communication strategies, understanding potential triggers, and creating positive, less stressful interactions for everyone involved.

The training also highlighted valuable resources already available to officers, including Blue Envelope programs, sensory support kits containing noise-reducing earmuffs, fidget tools, communication aids, and other accommodations designed to support successful encounters.

We are grateful to the Mt. Laurel Police Department for their commitment to learning, collaboration, and serving all members of our community with compassion and understanding. Together, we are helping create safer, more supportive environments for individuals with autism and developmental disabilities throughout South Jersey.

This Memorial Day, we pause to honor and remember the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice in service to our country. Their courage, dedication, and selflessness have protected the freedoms we cherish each day.

At Durand, we are grateful for the heroes who gave so much for our communities and our nation. As we spend time with family and friends this holiday, may we also reflect on the true meaning of Memorial Day and remember those who are no longer with us.

From all of us at Durand, we wish you a safe and meaningful Memorial Day. 🇺🇸

They say a picture is worth 1,000 words… but after Durand’s Night of Stars – Heroes Gala, these photos are worth more than $50,000.

We are beyond grateful to everyone who showed up, supported, donated, sponsored, volunteered, and participated in such an unforgettable evening benefitting the Durand Foundation. Together, we celebrated local community heroes, highlighted the extraordinary kindness and service happening throughout our community, and honored the incredible Jim Adair with our Lifetime Service Award for his decades of dedication and impact.

A heartfelt thank you to the Sapphire Grand for providing such a stunning venue and helping create an atmosphere worthy of this special celebration. We are also deeply appreciative of our amazing vendors and community supporters who helped make the night spectacular — including the special Congressional Recognition presented by Senator Andy Kim.

Most especially, we extend our sincere gratitude to our beloved community partners and sponsors. Your generosity and belief in our mission made this event possible and directly supports the work of the Durand Foundation as we continue “Helping Individuals With Special Needs Learn and Grow.”

From the bottom of our hearts… thank you for being the heroes behind the heroes. ⭐
