Goals for the campaign were to improve and enhance services to individuals served at the Center. The first phase of the campaign was completed with the construciton of the Brady Street building.

Our Personal Independence Services program relocated from the main HDC building at 3402 Hickory Grove Road to 4201 Brady Street on April 6th!!! Everyone is getting well aquainted with the new facility, and enjoying all the space they now occupy.
In the space vacated at the Hickory Grove Road building, two training areas have been enhanced to offer more opportunities for individuals to learn work skills and earn a paycheck. Remodeling at the Hickory Grove Road building is complete and the new accommodations are wonderful!
