The Centers for Habilitation

Over the past six months, members from our sewing enclave have been hard at work transforming recycled Arizona State University banners into unique, sustainable bags. We are so grateful to ASU for donating these materials and partnering with us to give them a second life and having the opportunity to sell them in the ASU bookstore!

This is just the beginning, and we can't wait to see this partnership take flight.

Please welcome Jason Nevins to the TCH Board of Directors! We are so excited to have you join the TCH family.

A little more about Jason:

I am also a proud father of two young boys (2.5 years old - Jordan and 11 months old - Parker) as well as am a devoted husband to my wife Amanda who is a Salesforce Consulting Manager."

We had such a blast kayaking yesterday with High Country Adaptive Sports at Watson Lake in Prescott! A special thank you to First Citizens Bank for funding this amazing opportunity for us. Lifelong memories were definitely made!🚤

Congratulations are in order for one of our very own day program room supervisors, Debbie Capshaw!

Last week, Debbie was awarded the Tim Bolen Award of Merit at this year's City of Tempe Government Mayor's All-Abilities Awards. This prestigious honor is awarded to those who empower individuals with disabilities in our community.

Amazing work, Debbie! Your TCH family is very proud of you🌟

Kicking off the spring season with a DTA party in the garden🌺 We had such a blast creating our own bouquets courtesy of Rowan Tree Flowers, fairy gardens, bracelets, and enjoying some sweet treats from DrinkMe Tea Room! Thank you to the fabulous Edward Jones volunteers for helping to make this possible.

Last week we put on our very first TCH camp day! Despite the very warm weather, our entire day program had a blast making bracelets, tie-dying shirts, hearing fun tales, and so much more.

Thank you to all of the volunteers who came out and spent the day with us🌲

A beautiful morning spent painting at Starlight Memorial Park! We are so grateful we had the opportunity to paint a piece of our organization on their mural wall. Thank you, Starlight, for this amazing partnership!

We've had a front-row seat to Catherine Alonzo writing The Changemaker’s Toolkit, and we're so excited it’s finally launching this week. 💚🧡

Catherine has been instrumental in shaping our organization’s identity. By defining our core values and cultivating a more inclusive culture, she has significantly enhanced the experience for both our employees and the individuals we support.

This book is for anyone who wants to make a difference but sometimes feels overwhelmed by the state of the world. It’s practical, hopeful, and grounded in real experience.

If that sounds like something you or someone you know might need, you can learn more or grab a copy here: https://www.catherinealonzo.com/the-book

We are still feeling the impact of the Cardinals Climb for Special Needs this past Saturday. It was an incredible day spent supporting a great cause!

Thank you to the Arizona Cardinals Foundation for putting this together, and a special shoutout to our donors and the Team TCH climbers for your support. See you next year!
