In celebration of National Inclusion Week, Penfield hosted Jonathan Heider, of Split Star Productions to share his "Inclusion Journey" with our staff and children. Jonathan shared how he navigates in a world designed for "able bodied individuals" and uses his lifetime of experiences to serve as a voice for others and pave the way for future generations to reach their fullest potential.
His story is deeply inspiring and resonates with our mission of helping children reach their fullest potential. Big thank you to Jonathan for speaking with our group!

In celebration of Hispanic Heritage Month, Ana and Hector chatted with The Morning Blend TMJ4 about ways to celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month with your kids. Watch the segment to hear some fun ways to introduce your kids to Hispanic figures and the importance of teaching young kids about different cultures.
HUGE shout out to Ana and Hector for stepping up and jumping in front of the camera to represent Penfield. It's not easy being on live TV and they both did awesome!
Penfield is deeply invested in the diversity, equity and inclusion of our staff and the families we serve. Today was a proud moment to celebrate the diversity of our staff and the valuable perspective they bring to our organization.
