Abilities First Vice President of Marketing and Development Debbie Barber Alberico presented a Certificate of Appreciation to Vice President, U.S. Bank, Rick Lux, on behalf of the local US Bank employees, for supporting the gift initiative for a client family of Abilities First. According to Abilities First Family Advocate / Social Worker and gift initiative organizer Norm Cosby, the family of five was "blown away" by the kindness and generosity of the bank employees.

Abilities First President Robin Usalis took a turn ringing bells with fellow representatives of the Middletown Rotary at a local store during the recent holiday season.

The folks at Abilities First Independence Center experienced some excitement today as the neighboring building at 1001 Grove Street was removed. Hope House Mission is constructing a new multi-million dollar facility to serve as a men's facility. According to Hope House Board President Carla Messer, safety is their priority. "Relationships with local law enforcement ensures that police will be driving by the facility regularly to keep would-be dealers away from the property, she said.” Empty buildings breed illicit activities and replacing the deteriorating building with a new facility designed to transform lives should add stability to the neighborhood," she added. Thanks to Abilities First for allowing the transfer of property ownership to the Hope House Mission.
