PAI-Parkway brought the friendly competition during their Social Skills Bingo game! Social Skills Bingo provides a supportive and engaging setting that allows participants to grow at their own pace while building healthy communication with peers, staff, employers, family members, and the broader community, making it easier to navigate daily interactions and feel connected to others!

Learning and practicing social skills can also help people:
🌟Build friendships and reduce feelings of isolation
🌟Improve self-advocacy and express wants, needs and boundaries
🌟Increase confidence in community activities and social environments
🌟Develop problem-solving and conflict-resolution skills

Starting the morning with movement and teamwork at PAI-Parkway 🏀

Participants recently spent part of their Morning Movement Activity playing basketball — practicing their shots, cheering each other on and getting active together. From made baskets to friendly competition, the court was full of energy and encouragement!

Movement-based activities help participants stay active, build coordination and create opportunities for teamwork and social connection — all while having fun along the way.

A big thank you to a Newtrax driver and guardian who generously took time to help spruce up the outside of PAI–Linden by planting and arranging flower pots 🌸

Their effort added a fresh, welcoming touch to the building’s exterior and is a great example of community members stepping in to support and care for shared spaces. Small acts like this help create a warm environment for everyone who walks through our doors!

We’re in the final days of our Open Doors to Community spring campaign, and we’re getting closer to our $18,000 goal every day! Throughout this campaign, we’ve shared stories of confidence, independence, creativity, and connection happening every day at PAI.

Terri recently spent time exploring Sephora during a community outing focused on self-care and personal choice. From testing different scents to browsing products that matched her interests, the experience gave her the opportunity to make choices, try something new, and confidently engage in the community.

There’s still time to help us cross the finish line and create more opportunities for participants to explore their interests, build independence and strengthen community connections.

Sweet treats and teamwork at PAI–Parkway!🍍Participants recently rolled up their sleeves to make a homemade no-bake pineapple pie — gathering ingredients, following each step, and mixing everything together to create the perfect dessert. There was plenty of laughter along the way (and a few taste tests to make sure it turned out just right).

From measuring and mixing to sharing the final result, this hands-on baking experience builds confidence, strengthens everyday skills and gives everyone something to feel proud of.

And yes… it tasted just as good as it looked!😋

Participants from PAI-Parkway recently welcomed instructors from the White Bear Center for the Arts for a hands-on art class where everyone created their own wooden spring door sign. Using paint, flowers, and plenty of personal touches, each participant designed something completely unique to them!

Bringing local artists and instructors into our program spaces gives participants the opportunity to explore different forms of art, express themselves creatively, and connect with members of the community in new ways. And judging by the smiles and finished projects, this class was a hit! 🖌
