Abilities First
Share
Abilities First is an organization that promotes inclusive opportunities for people with developmental disabilities. We believe that everyone has abilities and by ensuring that people have the opportunity to use their abilities, we make our community better for all of us. Abilities First uses public and private funds to support the choices of individuals with developmental disabilities in Greene County to live, work, play, be active, and productive in meaningful ways in our community.
More than 1,100 bags packed and a morning spent shoulder to shoulder with women who care deeply about this community. 💗
Last week’s Heart of SGF Women’s Network brought us together at Convoy of Hope for a service project followed by strong conversation around mentorship, leadership and what happens when women make room for each other.
Grateful for the chance to serve, listen and share space with so many women pouring back into our community 💕
Thanks for inviting us, Melanie Stinnett!

Today we pause to remember and honor the men and women who gave their lives in service to our country.
Their courage, sacrifice and devotion will not be forgotten.
Abilities First is closed today in observance of Memorial Day and will resume normal operations Tuesday, May 26.
More than 1,100 bags of lasagna and shell pasta were packed this morning at Convoy of Hope during the Heart of SGF Women’s Network gathering. 💕
After serving together, we heard from a panel of women leading in different spaces across our community: Melanie Stinnett, Stephanie O’Connor with City Utilities, Laine Scholz with Garbo’s Pizzeria and Angie Mullings with Integrity Group C21.
The conversation centered on mentorship, leadership and what changes when women choose to encourage, challenge and support each other in the workplace.
Abilities First was glad to be part of a morning that brought together service, connection and meaningful conversation with women who continue to pour into Springfield and the people who call it home. 💗
