Celebrating a Legacy of Hope
Legacy Residential Homes residents commemorated Martin Luther King Jr. Day with meaningful reflection and creativity.
Each location designed posters celebrating Dr. King’s life, legacy, and message of equality, using art as a way to express understanding and appreciation for his impact.
To deepen the experience, the boys visited the National Underground Railroad Freedom Center, where they explored powerful exhibits highlighting freedom, resilience, and the ongoing pursuit of justice.
The day served as both a celebration of Dr. King’s birthday and a reminder of the importance of his work, inspiring thoughtful conversations and learning across our community.
Playing Together, Growing Together
Laughter, friendly competition, and teamwork filled the room during Legacy Residential Homes’ recent Game Night.
Residents and staff came together to enjoy a variety of board, card, and tabletop games, creating a relaxed space to connect and unwind.
The evening was more than just play - it was an opportunity to build relationships, practice communication skills, and share positive moments together.
Events like Game Night remind us that meaningful connection and joy are essential parts of a strong, supportive community.
A Birthday to Remember at Scene 75

The day was filled with laughter, games, and shared moments as everyone joined in the fun and made the celebration truly memorable.
The outing highlighted the importance of connection, joy, and celebrating milestones together.
It was a wonderful reminder that birthdays are not just about getting older - they’re about celebrating the value and support each person brings to the community.
