We are very sad to share the passing of a former Beacon member, Lonnie Shepherd.

You may remember, in 2021, we celebrated Lonnie's success in earning his General Equivalency Diploma through Beacon's customized high school equivalency classes while pursuing his dream of becoming a writer. His determination, dedication, and positive energy inspired those around him and left a lasting impression on our team.

We are grateful to have been a small part of his journey and extend our deepest condolences to his family and friends.

We are excited to announce that Beacon Group was recently selected as a 2026 Ability Transcends Challenges (ATC) Award recipient by the Professional Baseball Athletic Trainers Society (PBATS). This award is given to an organization that demonstrates a true commitment to disability inclusion and employment.

PBATS developed the ATC program in 2014 to bring national awareness about people with disabilities, promoting community and employment inclusion by using examples from baseball. The program started giving awards in 2024, and began partnering with the National Down Syndrome Society in 2025 to honor organizations in MLB cities. In 2026, PBATS completed that vision by presenting the ATC award to one organization in all 30 Major League Baseball cities, including Beacon Group in Phoenix!

We are so proud to accept this award as it aligns perfectly with our mission of creating opportunities for people with disabilities and we hope it will inspire other businesses and organizations to do the same! Thank you to PBATS and the National Down Syndrome Society for this honor!

We had a great time hosting the Local First Arizona Tucson Business Mixer last week! It was fun connecting with business owners in our community and showing everyone what Beacon is all about! Plus, we discussed ways we can partner together and job opportunities for the people with disabilities who we serve.

Last week, we had the pleasure of welcoming Tucson Ward 5 Council Member Selina Barajas for a tour of Beacon Group headquarters!
We enjoyed showing her and her team around and discussing ways we can create more opportunities for people with disabilities around Tucson.
