Happy Holidays

Happy Holidays from the Disabilities Network of Eastern Connecticut. Just a reminder: the office will close early on the 21st of December so that we may have our annual holiday lunch. The office will reopen on Monday the 24th for a half day, close for the 25th, and reopen for regular hours on the 26th.

This time of year, we ask you to please call before you come to make sure that the office is open, and that there is someone here to assist you. This is especially true on days when the weather is bad, or is expected to be bad. We will close the office for the safety of our staff and consumers in case of poor weather.

Our annual food drive has concluded, and though we are exhausted from the work, we are thrilled that we were able to hand out 53 food baskets which will provide holiday meals to families with disabilities who are in need this season. We thank everyone for their assistance in this project, especially the Wal-mart Super Center in Waterford, which was instrumental in helping us pull off our plan. The day we did our shopping, they provided us with people to assist us, they opened a register for us, and helped us load the groceries into the cars. We had five baskets, and could not have done it ourselves! They also supplied us with fifty dollars worth of free groceries! Thanks guys! We appreciate all of your hardwork, and your dedication to the community!
