Slippery Rock Program Aide Kait Benson took a small group for Community Participation at the Oh Wow! Science Center in Youngstown, OH. Oh Wow! is a center that encourages hands-on activities with a focus on STEM learning. The group had a great time learning about weather and being weather forecasters for a day. They also did drive simulations and other science activities. It was a great day filled with learning and fun.

In honor of National Dog Day on August 26, Broadhead Smart Home is excited to highlight Floyd's service dog, Popcorn. Popcorn has lived with Floyd at the Brodhead Smart Home since 2021. Recently, Popcorn visited Beaver Valley Mall with Floyd and his friends. Floyd's dream has always been to own a dog of his own and through the help of Merakey AVS staff, Canine Service Pals, and Floyd himself, he's living his dream!


Cierra, Genny, and Wendy from Nolte Home at Merakey AVS enjoyed a “staycation” in August. They had a pool day, went to the movies, visited the nail salon, and took a day trip to Ohiopyle State Park.
