The celebration may be a day late, but the appreciation lasts all year! ❤️🌎

As Hispanic Heritage Month comes to a close, we’re taking a moment to celebrate the vibrant cultures, rich traditions, and remarkable contributions of Hispanic and Latino communities.

At Anthesis, we believe our differences make our community stronger, and we’re proud to celebrate the heritage, stories, and experiences that make each of us unique.

Hispanic Heritage Month may have ended yesterday, but the spirit of inclusion, connection, and cultural appreciation continues every day. 💙🧡

A strong community is built by those who choose to invest in the well-being and success of others. 💙🧡

As Anthesis marks its 60th anniversary, we’re taking the opportunity to shine a spotlight on the organizations that make a difference through their actions.

Today, we’re recognizing Dignity Group for their ongoing friendship, generosity, and support of Anthesis and the individuals we serve. Their involvement is a reminder that making a lasting impact doesn’t happen in isolation. It takes people and organizations willing to show up, lend a hand, and invest in the lives of others.

We are grateful to Dignity Group for being among those who recognize the importance of our work and continue to stand behind it.

Here’s to the relationships that make our work stronger and the difference we can continue to make together! 🌳

For 60 years, Anthesis has been rooted in a community that believes in the power of opportunity, inclusion, and connection. 🌳💙

Throughout our history, the generosity and support of community partners have helped us expand opportunities, strengthen our programs, and create meaningful experiences for the individuals we serve.

As we celebrate our 60th anniversary, we’re proud to recognize National CORE and the Empire Strykers, two organizations whose commitment to community and collaboration reflects the spirit that has sustained our mission for six decades.

Our story has never been ours alone. It belongs to the families, organizations, and community members who continue to believe in what we can accomplish together.

Thank you for being part of our story and helping us grow possibilities for the future. 🧡

What a great day to support the Dignity Group 15th Annual Joanne & James Jennings Memorial Golf Tournament at Los Serranos Country Club. Our guys were the morning greeters for the event and am sure that they enjoyed the lunch with the golfers. We appreciate Grady and his team for always including Anthesis in this event and hope that it was a successful day of golf and fun in honor of your wife and son!

As we continue sharing portraits from the Pomona Valley Workshop years, we’re reminded that an organization’s history isn’t only found in dates, buildings, programs, or names. It lives in people.

Each of these faces represents a life, a story, and a chapter in a community that has been growing for nearly 60 years.

Much has changed since these portraits were taken. Opportunities have expanded, expectations have changed, and our understanding of what inclusion and independence can look like continues to grow.

These photographs give us a chance to look back while remembering why that progress matters.

As we approach our 60th anniversary, we’ll continue opening the archives and sharing pieces of the story that brought us here.

Different eras. Different stories. One community, growing possibilities.

Before we were Anthesis, we were Pomona Valley Workshop.

Recently, we came across a series of postcards commissioned during our PVW years, each featuring the portrait of a participant whose story became part of our organization’s history.

Today, we’re sharing a few of those portraits as a tribute to the many people who have shaped our mission across six decades.

The name has changed. The way we talk about disability, inclusion, independence, and opportunity has continued to evolve. But at the heart of our work has always been people.

As Anthesis celebrates 60 years, we honor the individuals who came before us, the people we serve today, and the generations still to come.

60 years of championing possibilities. 60 years of lives, stories, and community.

For 60 years, Anthesis has grown alongside the people and communities we serve.

Our story began in 1966, when local families came together to create meaningful opportunities for adults with developmental disabilities. What started as a small work program operating from a family garage would grow into Pomona Valley Workshop—and eventually into Anthesis.

As we prepare for our 60th Anniversary Dinner on Friday, October 23, we invite you to be part of the next chapter of that story.

1966 — Pomona Valley Sheltered Workshop is established by local families.

(Pictured Ralph and Leona Lyons)

1979 — The organization becomes Pomona Valley Workshop.

2017–2018 — Pomona Valley Workshop becomes Anthesis, and Integrated Employment Community-Based Services begins.

Today — Anthesis continues creating opportunities through employment, community integration, education, skill development, and new pathways for independence.

This week, we’re proud to celebrate the incredible Direct Support Professionals who make a difference at Anthesis every day. 💙

Our DSPs do so much more than provide support. They encourage independence, create opportunities, build connections, and help the people we serve pursue their goals with confidence.

To every DSP across Anthesis, thank you for your compassion, patience, dedication, and the countless ways you help make inclusion and possibility a reality. We appreciate you today and all year long.
