We are a small, family-owned AFC, and opening this home has been an adventure and a sacrifice for all of us, especially our children. But seeing this... this is full circle. This is our reason why.

Our children attended the residents' baseball game this week and brought some of their friends along. The opportunities and experiences we are able to provide for our children and now their friends, are truly priceless. Our children take so much pride in teaching their friends about our community.

Listening to them explain AFOs, mobility differences, and accommodations; watching them introduce their friends to the residents; showing and explaining the different ways our residents communicate; and sharing the joy of our little community—it was an incredibly proud moment for us.

We are so thankful to the families who trust us to care for and support their loved ones. Even more so, we are grateful that all of our families embrace and appreciate the involvement of our children. We have such a special dynamic at CCL.

As parents, there are moments that stop you in your tracks and remind you why every sacrifice has been worth it. Watching our children proudly share this community with their friends was one of those moments. They don't see limitations—they see friendships. They don't focus on differences—they celebrate people. They are growing up in a world where wheelchairs, communication devices, accommodations, and disabilities are not things to fear, question, or avoid. They are simply part of the beautiful diversity of humanity.

What a gift it is to raise children who lead with kindness, acceptance, and understanding. And what an even greater gift it is to watch them pass those values on to others. If we can help create a generation of children who see inclusion as normal, who welcome differences without hesitation, and who recognize the value and dignity in every person, then we know we are building something far bigger than a home, we are helping build a more compassionate world.

Thank you to our sweet friends Katey Paluzzi, Lindsey Abraham Renaud for having such wonderful children!

Last night, some of the residents of CapABLE Community Living had the opportunity to join the Challenger Baseball League for our very first game — and they absolutely crushed it.

It was incredible watching everyone get out on the field, have fun, support one another, and just genuinely enjoy being part of a team. The smiles, excitement, and confidence throughout the night made it something really special for all of us.

We also want to give a huge thank you to the families, friends, and community members who came out to cheer everyone on. Your support, encouragement, and kindness mean more than you know. Programs like Challenger Baseball help create the kind of inclusive and welcoming community that every person deserves to be part of, and we are very grateful to now be a small part of it.

We already cannot wait for the next game.

We are excited to welcome Gregg to the CapABLE Community Living family!

Gregg has officially joined our home, and we couldn’t be happier to have him here. From the moment he arrived, he has already brought a great energy into the house, and we are looking forward to getting to know him better each day.

At CCL, we believe every new beginning is something to celebrate. Our team is committed to making sure Gregg feels comfortable, supported, and truly at home as he settles in and becomes part of our community.

Please join us in giving Gregg a warm welcome!

Our washing machine at CapABLE Community Living unexpectedly broke, and we are currently in need of a replacement.

As a small, family-run nonprofit, appliances like this are essential to keeping our home running smoothly and ensuring our residents have clean clothes and a comfortable environment every day.

If anyone has a working washing machine they would be willing to donate, or knows of one available at low cost, we would be incredibly grateful. We are happy to arrange pickup.

Thank you for always supporting our home and the individuals we serve. Please feel free to message us directly.

Sunday’s are for shopping!

Our residents are building independence every time they step into the store! Practicing budgeting, making healthy choices, comparing prices, communicating with staff, and strengthening decision-making skills. These everyday moments are powerful opportunities for growth, confidence, and community connection.

Shopping trips like this help reinforce life skills that support greater independence and self-esteem. We’re so proud of the hard work, teamwork, and progress our residents show each day. It’s not just about what’s in the cart… it’s about the skills and confidence they carry with them long after checkout.

This weekend we spent time working together on healthy meal prep!

From washing and chopping fresh ingredients to choosing balanced options, everyone played a role and built valuable life skills along the way.

Meal prep isn’t just about food…it’s about independence, confidence, teamwork, and making healthy choices that support overall well-being. We’re so proud of the meals we plan, prep and serve here at CCL! We are even more proud of the focus, effort, and positive energy everyone brought to the kitchen!

Healthy bodies. Growing skills. Stronger independence. 🖤
