July holds a very special day of celebration. On July 26th our country celebrates the 30th anniversary of the signing of the Americans with Disabilities Act. This Act and its revisions have made it so that our friends with disabilities have access to informed choices and greater possibilities in their lives. That is something to celebrate! That's why ADEC will be hosting a virtual event, Picture Possibilities, which will invite all our friends, families, and supporters to join in weekly challenges, shared accomplishments, and celebrated possibilities!This is an opportunity for us to celebrate possibilities, while supporting our neighbors with intellectual and developmental disabilities so that they can overcome challenges and live more fulfilled lives. Every dollar from my fundraiser will support ADEC's underfunded but vital programs like family services, transportation, and skills training for young adults with disabilities.Your support helps make a difference in our communities!

As many of you know, ADEC has been crucial to our family. The guidance and support for our family has been immeasurable.  We truly couldn't function as a family without their help.  Every year, ADEC hosts the Ride-a-Bike as a major fundraiser so that these programs can continue.  The coronavirus has put the brakes on Ride-a-Bike, but ADEC still needs the community to come out (virtually) and support their programs!  Please consider giving to ADEC so that their amazing work can continue for families like ours.  Jonny Ribz thanks you for attending his Ted talk!
