Friendship and science collided in the Casey CBDS Program as Angel and Thomas teamed up for Mad Science Monday! Together they tackled an acid-base experiment -- mixing lemon juice, baking soda and dish soap which created an eruption of suds (and laughter).

Another GREAT day at Sunshine ...Village!

Gina was asked to partake in a video that the Chicopee Public Library is making. We can’t wait to see the final product!

Together we are SHINING even brighter!

Dependability Makes the Difference!

Our Westover Maintenance Systems crew enjoyed another insightful Lunch and Learn with Jill from POPmore, focusing on being a dependable employee. From the importance of showing up on time to staying friendly and responsive, these skills are key to ...SHINING at work and beyond.

Clients from our Chicopee, Agawam and Three Rivers CBDS programs had a GREAT day learning about careers in social media, ticket sales, creative services and more from the Thunderbirds' Marketing, Communications and Community Relations Departments. They shared their career journeys, first jobs ...and the importance of teamwork.

A big thanks to our Casey CBDS Culinary Team for catering a chicken parmesan lunch and to the @thunderbirdsahl for inspiring our participants to grow and SHINE!

Not every Mad Science Monday experiment goes as planned! Today’s "Drink of Density" didn’t layer as expected, but clients didn’t mind—they turned it into a fun taste-testing opportunity!

To dive deeper, our friends in Agawam CBDS headed to the library to research liquid ...density. They discovered that juices with more sugar sink faster because they’re denser, while those containing more water float.

It’s a GREAT day to live and learn at Sunshine Village!

GREAT days happen when we make connections!

Family Jungle, one of our ‘Bringing the Community to Us’ Inclusion Partners, combines education and fun through interactive visits with exotic animals. These visits not only teach us about unique creatures but also bring so many smiles to our... faces!
