The spirit of #Halloween is in FULL effect today at Sherwood!

This time last year, Sherwood's Adult Program spent the day volunteering at Mother's Refuge by planting fruit trees with Giving Grove at their shelter. What great memories with such a wonderful community partner! #ThrowbackThursday

Sherwood’s Supported Employment program helps empower adults with autism and related developmental disabilities to gain meaningful employment in the Kansas City community. Chantale is a production worker at Goodwill of Western Missouri & Eastern Kansas! When asked about her job, Chantale told us, "I like it a lot. I work with the clothes and the books and I am just happy to have a job." #WorkforceWednesday #NDEAM

Snow in October feels like a bit of a trick, but our campus is decorated and ready for the TREAT of Halloween at the end of this week! #TrickOrTreat

When we work together, we can help each other achieve so much! #Teamwork #MondayMotivation

October's Sponsor of the Month is Hallmark! Hallmark is dedicated to creating a more emotionally connected world and making a difference in the lives of others.

Our workforce is so much stronger when it’s inclusive! We’re continuing to highlight the strengths of our adults during National Disability Employment Awareness Month. Kyle enjoys sharing what’s on his mind and keeping track of a schedule! #NDEAM #HireMyStrengths #WorkforceWednesday

The Supported Employment team worked together outside to clean up the fall leaves on our patio. Teamwork makes the dream work!
