You Make a Difference
Winter Growth’s success can be attributed to its dedicated staff members and supportive families as well as to the many generous members of the community who contribute to the work that we do. The support of volunteers in particular has made it possible for Winter Growth to exceed licensing standards and offer programs that focus on the unique needs and interests of the people we serve.
YOU are invited to become a part of our mission to help seniors and adults with disabilities continue to achieve their highest potential for independence, dignity, and life satisfaction.
