Thank you to these amazing St. Vincent-St. Mary High School students who volunteered their time at ACCESS for their Sophomore Retreat!

This crew created ornaments featuring words of encouragement to hang on residents’ doors throughout the holiday season. Their thoughtfulness and compassion for the women and children we serve will make a meaningful impact, bringing a little extra joy and holiday cheer to our residents. 💜

Our residents had a spook-tacular time at the ACCESS Halloween Party, all thanks to Miller's Rental and Sales, Inc.! 🎃 This amazing community partner provided pizza, candy, and fun activities for the women and children we serve, making the celebration a real treat. Everyone had a fang-tastic time, and we’re so grateful for Miller’s generosity in making this Halloween one to remember! 🧡
