Thrilled the Myers family donated $1MM to @JESPYHouse. Our clients with intellectual and developmental disabilities will age in the community that they know and love. Especially inspirational to have such generous support from one of our founding families! tapinto.net/towns/millburn-s…

Adults with intellectual & developmental disabilities can show signs of aging in their 40s associated with seniors in their 70s. But, clients @JESPYHouse aren't ready to retire! Thanks @RepSherrill for visiting our independence-based aging-in-place model! tapinto.net/towns/soma/categ…

Thanks @RepSherrill for visiting @JESPYHouse to meet with clients and discuss issues critical to adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities such as #AffordableHousing and employment. At JESPY, independence is a right not a privilege. tapinto.net/towns/soma/categ…

Amazing groundbreaking ceremony for future affordable housing for families and adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities! This is an excellent example of how advocacy can lead to strong community-government partnerships. Way to go @JESPYHouse & @SheenaCollum!

Happy Anniversary ⁦@ABLImpact⁩! 20 yrs ago, family and friends drove from near and far to attend our wedding. We came together to celebrate love after NYC and our nation experienced so much hatred. I am blessed to still be in the trenches with you after all these years! ❤️

Will miss @ABLImpact stories re great @nff_news clients. He sees people behind the work. (As a black woman, I know the importance of being seen.) Proud of ABL's 10 yr leadership successes (e.g., raising $43 million of unrestricted funds & centering social justice in NFF work).

1st Shot: Nurse Keisha said, "Hope!" 2nd Shot: Nurse Susan whispered in my ear: "Freedom!" Chills! (And, not from #Moderna.) Thanks to all the #EssexCounty #CovidVaccine volunteers who are helping to get #NJ back to a more normal life at the end of this very long tunnel.

FINALLY! 🙏🏾Thank you Nurse Keisha for giving us our painless first shots of the #Moderna vaccine! Every step of the way, #EssexCountyCovid vaccine site made us feel safe. Picking up on @ABLImpact's hat, What do you say to the God of Death? Moderna! #GoT #PuttingEssexCountyFirst
