🍳 At SPHERE, our programs are designed to foster independence and confidence. Last week’s cooking class was a perfect example. Our members took the lead at every step of the process, from mastering knife safety and whisking techniques to washing and drying.
When we cook together, we aren't just making a meal; we’re building the skills that carry over into everyday life. They all loved their Grilled Chicken Gyros and soft Lemon Ricotta Cookies. 👏

What does inclusion really look like?
👨🍳 It looks like friends laughing in a cooking class.
🧑🎨 It looks like artists sharing their work.
💙 It looks like community members supporting one another.
During Developmental Disabilities Awareness Month, we celebrate the incredible individuals who make SPHERE such a vibrant and joyful community.
When people with developmental disabilities are given opportunities to learn, connect, and lead, our whole community becomes stronger.
Because everyone deserves a place to belong. www.spherect.org ... See MoreSee Less
