One year ago, we broke ground on the Specialized Autism Friendly Recreation Complex. Today, that vision is taking shape at The Els Center of Excellence! 💙

Designed specifically for individuals with autism, the complex will expand year-round access to recreation and fitness in a safe, sensory-friendly environment.

The complex will feature a life-saving Aquatic Center focused on water safety and a purpose-built Gymnasium for indoor recreation programs.

We are grateful to everyone who is helping bring this transformative space to life and look forward to opening its doors in spring 2027! Learn more and support the Recreation Complex at https://www.elsforautism.org/ways-to-give/recreation-complex-capital-campaign/

The gift of music is about so much more than learning an instrument. 🎶💙

Thanks to the continued generosity of the Song of Kellen Foundation, individuals in our Adult Day Training program and students at The Learning Academy are discovering new ways to learn, express themselves, and connect through music.

From keyboards and percussion instruments to a saxophone, clarinet, and even a karaoke machine, these gifts are helping create joyful experiences that build confidence and inspire creativity.

Thank you to the Song of Kellen Foundation for making these opportunities possible.
