One week ago we celebrated our 65th birthday with a small celebration that involved cake, some close friends, and a very exciting announcement about our Pediatric Therapy expansion!

Remember when we opened the Gregg Chadwick Marcfirst Pediatric Therapy Center six months ago? Well we've already outgrown it! Our SECOND location, also in partnership with @Carle_org, is coming soon! 😁

This week, the #Marchives show us yet again how far we have advanced! In 1970, we were able to provide one of our kiddos with a walker. Fast-forward to The Pantagraph in 2020, where we were able to work with Cornbelt Ambucs to provide adaptive cycling equipment!
