Events for June 13, 2026

How can we make connections to places, associations, and opportunities that will give the people we support a chance to participate and contribute their gifts, talents, and passions? We teach and talk a lot in our work about helping vulnerable people get involved in their communities, yet many of us are unsure how to proceed in our own lives, much less in the lives of others. We invite you to explore community with us in an experiential fashion, using a process of discovery called Community Mapping. Where does community life take place? Where are the places that people gather together? How can we join in authentically, and assist others to do so as well? Most importantly, how might life change if we are successful? This two-day event takes an in-depth look at what is involved in Community Mapping and have an opportunity to experience it for yourself.

Ideas that Matter is a half-day workshop aimed at offering a very brief look into some of Keystone Human Services’ foundational principles. We begin by exploring the history of disability, including how people with disabilities have been treated and thought about throughout history. We will take time to consider the threads and consequences of historical mindsets on the treatment of people today.
