Thanks to all of the participants. 1st prize goes to "the morgue", 2nd prize goes to "the mummy" and third prize goes to "Mr & Mrs Frankenstein". All of the doors were fun...What are you doing in your office?

There is a quote, (author unknown) "The great thing about new friends is that they bring new energy to your soul." Let's help build the circle of friends for the people we support at RISE by encouraging them to participate in our "Buddy Connection" pen pal program. If you support someone in RISE that would like to meet someone from another area of the RISE family and you haven't received information, email monicav@riseservicesinc.org to sign them up. There is no cost involved, the time is minimal and there are many communication, writing and social skills involved. Email today to get started...
They are not just clients or people we support. They are people who touch our lives and stay with us forever.
