It’s Women’s History Month! ✨

HABD is proud of the women leaders making history at our agency! They are going beyond the call of duty and we want to celebrate them. 👏

First up, President and CEO Dontrelle Young Foster! Ms. Foster is a testament to service and commitment to the community as she has been with HABD for over 20 years.

Our agency is always looking for opportunities to help our young residents learn and grow. 💡

Collegeville Court youth residents recently travelled to our capitol city to visit the Legacy Museum, Freedom Monument Sculpture Park, and the National Memorial for Peace and Justice! They were able to learn about slavery, segregation, and so much more. HABD is committed to fostering an environment that not only produces vibrant communities, but also stimulates our residents' minds.

Today marks her last day as an HABD employee as she begins a new chapter and enters retirement.

Mrs. Tyus replied she was going to enjoy her time off.

Thank you, Mrs. Tyus, for your commitment to serving HABD for over 40 years! We will miss you! ❤

We 💗 our residents!

To celebrate the month of love, we are featuring residents who are excelling on the pathway to self-sufficiency! First up, is 18-year-old JaMichael Thornton.
