All Around IAHD: January 2026 February 1, 2026

❄️Individuals from our Ryer home had a wonderful time at the Bryant Park Winter Village, where they took turns on the bumper cars on ice. Afterwards, they warmed up with some delicious hot Dubai chocolate from Wafels & Dinges!

🏅Congratulations to Ryer’s Wanda and Doneisha for successfully completing the My25 Fitness Challenge! Combined, they lost a total of 14 lbs in the month of December through increasing their time spent exercising and reducing the amount of calories they eat. Wanda and Doneisha won a bluetooth speaker and an Amazon gift card to put towards buying a tablet, respectively, for all their hard work and dedication! Well done, ladies!

🎨In the spirit of Martin Luther King Jr. Day, some of the individuals at St. Mary’s made art with positive messaging with the hope that they can empower and uplift others through art and other creative means!
