This Thanksgiving, we are especially thankful for the DSA team members who have shown up day after day to make sure that seniors in Albuquerque have hot meals, rides, care coordination, working heaters, firewood, volunteer opportunities, care packages, COVID-safe learning and fitness opportunities and so much more. And for the DSA team members who support outside of school youth programming so parents who are essential workers have a safe, engaging place to send their kids. To all approximately 230 of our dedicated, passionate, caring staff—we think you rock! #OneAlbuquerque
