Join us in celebrating Lexie Grimm! ๐ŸŽ‰

We're proud to share that Lexie was recognized as the 2026 Employment Specialist of the Year by the Missouri Rehabilitation Association at its annual conference.

This award honors employment specialists who go above and beyond in supporting individuals with disabilities as they pursue meaningful employment and greater independence.

As a member of Firefly's Individual Placement and Support (IPS) team, Lexie demonstrates every day what it means to build belief, create opportunities, and help people achieve their goals. Her dedication to the people she serves makes a lasting impact on lives, workplaces, and communities across Missouri.

Congratulations, Lexie, on this well-deserved recognition! ๐Ÿ‘

In honor of Memorial Day, our offices will be closed on Monday, May 25, as we remember and honor the brave individuals who gave their lives in service to our country.

We also recognize that holidays like Memorial Day can bring up feelings of grief and loss for many veterans and military families.

If you or someone you know needs support, the 988 Su***de & Crisis Lifeline is available 24/7 by calling or texting 988, or by visiting 988lifeline.org.

Our offices will resume normal business hours on Tuesday, May 26.

The SPARK Team at Firefly College Rd is bringing the energy this Mental Health Month! ๐Ÿ’™โ˜€๏ธ

Earlier this month, employees took a moment to pause, recharge, and connect during a Monday Mid-Day Pick-Me-Up featuring drinks from Brew 21 Extra Chromosome Coffee Co. and a self-reflection activity led by Bailey Pyle from the Be Well team.

Mental health matters, and creating space for connection, encouragement, and joy in the workplace can make a meaningful difference. Weโ€™re grateful for community partners like Brew 21 who helped make the day extra special!

The Joplin Firefly team was proud to participate in the Freeman 5K and Walk for Autism 2026 alongside so many community members, advocates, families, and partner organizations.

Events like these are a meaningful reminder of the importance of connection, awareness, and creating communities where everyone feels supported and included. Weโ€™re grateful for opportunities to come together in support of autistic individuals and their families.

Thank you to Freeman Health System for hosting such a wonderful community event! ๐Ÿ‘Ÿ
