MARK YOUR CALENDAR! 🗓

😀You don't have to be a conference registrant to attend this training!😀

The Rooted & Responsive training is ideal for anyone who'd like an up-to-date training on Community Resources and Charting the Life Course.

Charting the LifeCourse is a framework developed to help individuals and families at any age or stage of life think about what they need to know, identify how to find or develop supports, and discover what it takes to live the lives they want to live. Individuals and families may focus on their current situation and stage of life but may also find it helpful to look ahead to start thinking about what they can do or learn what will help build an inclusive productive life in the future.

Today would have been our trailblazing founder Pat Potts's 93rd birthday. 💐

As we pause to remember and celebrate her, we'd like to share with you a wonderful interview she did in 2019, on the occasion of her induction into the Oklahoma Women's Hall of Fame. Watch the video here: https://youtu.be/iV6HYXbq8Xg?si=IoCozaAKO8unkJZw

We continue to be grateful, inspired and awestruck by this amazing woman.
