His parents would often say, “He smiled first, asked questions later.” Then at 18 months of age, everything changed. Sam became easily agitated and often angry.

We are thankful for Michael’s dedication, passion and service. In May of 2015, Sam entered our Residential Program and moved into the Tavi house.

Jonathan was hooked! As the holidays approached, he planned a special visit to introduce his family to the clients at Bisby Lake Home. They celebrated Thanksgiving and played board games all night. They’ve since spent time at two of our other homes playing basketball, practicing yoga and enjoying dinner with the residents. Our clients and direct care staff have expressed how much they’ve loved getting to know Jonathan and his family. He has certainly had an impact on the lives he’s touched at HGH.

It’s true that every penny counts, but your individual involvement and raising awareness holds great value.”

Terry - age 61

Terry chose an exciting new path for her life this past year. She moved from a group home setting to living in Lakeside with just one roommate. Stephanie is an employee of the school district and works with children diagnosed as having developmental disabilities. She was looking to make a change in her life since her children are grown and living on their own. Stephanie and Terry each shared the desire to live with a companion. Terry’s family and network of support staff knew she wanted something more for herself. They all encouraged her along the way. Terry is now an active participant in the everyday household activities and is involved with various social happenings with Stephanie. Terry also enjoys her nearby day program which she attends while Stephanie is at work. She’ll tell you her favorite time of the day comes when she is able to draw. Anyone who has seen her drawings will agree she has true talent. But nothing compares to the happiness Terry exudes when at the end of the day, she re-unites with her new companion Stephanie. There is no denying their friendship and loving bond. According to Terry’s sister, Terry has found her “forever home.”

Family-centered, relationship-based, culturally-responsive and tailored to each child.

ZiAire - age 3

ZiAire is a bright, curious little boy with a laugh so contagious you can’t help but join in. This wasn’t always the case. As a baby, he was exhibiting behaviors very concerning to his grand- mother and caregiver, Maxine. ZiAire was withdrawn, made little eye contact and had difficulty sleeping. At the age of 18 months, he could speak just five words and was delayed in developmentally appropriate activities like stacking blocks and using a spoon. It was at 18 months that ZiAire began receiving the therapies he needed. These included in-home services from our Early Childhood Development Program. Through play-based therapy, which supports young children in learning new skills and includes parent coaching, ZiAire began to show noticeable changes. He was interacting with other children and was better able to express himself with both words and by using body language as a form of communication. ZiAire is three years old now and has grown in leaps and bounds. He’s all smiles and full of curiosity. Thanks to the dedication of his grandmother in seeking out and participating in early intervention services, ZiAire is thriving today!
