This month marks the two-year anniversary since Ari came home from the Neurobehavioral Unit at the Kennedy Krieger Institute in Baltimore. As many of you know, Ari spent 6-months under the care of the doctors, behaviorists and nurses there as we sought to get his self-injurious behaviors under control. We are so happy to report we are all doing great and our daily family life has become much more manageable.

The Friendship Circle continues to offer us support - checking in regularly but more importantly giving Ari opportunities to be an active participant in the community. In addition to participating in social programs, this year Ari helped assemble mishloach manot which were distributed for Purim (see pic on our team page).

The Friendship Circle is an amazing organization that offers so many amazing opportunities to the special needs community. We appreciate your consideration in including it in your 2019 contributions.

Best,
Shari
