🎳☀️ Rolling into Summer! ☀️🎳

Our School Age class at our Springfield Gardens Education Center kicked off some summer fun with an exciting bowling trip! Students enjoyed friendly competition, plenty of laughs, and the chance to spend time together outside the classroom while building social skills and confidence!

Connecting with the next generation of changemakers! 🌟

Birch Family Services was proud to participate in a recent City Year career fair, where we had the opportunity to meet with young passionate individuals interested in preparing for their future and the workforce.

Our team shared insights into the rewarding careers available at Birch, the impact our staff make every day, and the benefits of joining an organization dedicated to empowering individuals with autism and developmental disabilities and strengthening communities.

Thank you to City Year for welcoming us and to everyone who stopped by to learn more about becoming part of the Birch family! 💙

Learning is looking sweet as we head into Summer! 🍦

Our students at the Long Island City Early Childhood Center beat the heat with a fun-filled Ice Cream Shoppe Day! Scooping and serving their own ice cream creations, students had a day of (sticky) hands-on learning and fun.

As students "purchased" their treats, they had the opportunity to practice exchanging money, building early financial literacy skills while enjoying a delicious reward!🍨💙

In honor of Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month, participants at our Queens Day Habilitation program whipped up delicious ube milkshakes while learning about the rich cultural significance of ube, a beloved purple yam featured in many Filipino desserts and traditions.

From blending the ingredients to tasting the end result, it was a fun and flavorful way to celebrate the diverse cultures that make our communities stronger!

Learning, connecting, and building stronger supports for families. 💙

Our Birch Family Services Education and Training Departments were proud to represent Birch at the 38th Annual Bronx Family Support Conference hosted by the Bronx Developmental Disabilities Council. Events like these create meaningful opportunities to connect families with resources, share expertise, and strengthen advocacy across every stage of life, from early intervention through adulthood.

Thank you to everyone who stopped by to meet our team and learn more about the services, programs, and support available throughout the Birch community!

This week is critical for the New York State budget, and the TII is actively being discussed. Providers supporting the I/DD community are facing rising costs and staffing shortages amidst growing demand.

Please tell your legislators they must include the full 4% TII in the final budget: https://bit.ly/4tm0hhk

Play mode: fully activated!💙

Our Long Island City Early Childhood Center celebrated their Day of Play with a day packed full of movement, creativity, sensory fun, and adventure! Students crawled through tunnels, tackled obstacle courses, tossed bean bags, built with giant LEGOs, knocked down giant bowling pins, splashed through water play, and explored bubbles along the way!

And after all the fun, students enjoyed a cool fruit popsicle treat as the perfect way to wrap up an amazing day.
