An Evening that Brings Together Families, Providers, and Community Partners!
On Tuesday, June 23, Community Supports Network proudly hosted our Annual Resource Fair for DDD-Eligible Individuals and Families at Bergen Community College’s Technology Education Center in Paramus, New Jersey.
What an incredible evening!
We had an outstanding turnout of families, providers, community organizations, and professionals from across the state at this event. This served as a powerful reminder of what can happen when a community comes together with a shared goal: supporting individuals with disabilities and their families.
Attendees had many opportunities to connect directly with agencies and service providers, explore valuable resources, and learn about available supports. Consequently, these relationships will help individuals thrive at every stage of life in the future.
For many families, navigating services and supports can feel overwhelming. Thus events like the Annual Resource Fair provide meaningful conversations, education, and connections in a welcoming and inclusive environment. Whether attendees were seeking information about adult services, employment supports, recreation programs, educational resources, healthcare providers, or community organizations, there was something for everyone.
We were honored to welcome dozens of participating vendors and organizations who generously shared their expertise, programs, and services with attendees. Their commitment to serving individuals with disabilities helps strengthen our communities and create more opportunities for inclusion and independence.
Most importantly, the evening highlighted the power of collaboration. When providers, families, advocates, and community partners come together, we create stronger support systems and brighter futures for the individuals we serve.
To everyone who attended, exhibited, volunteered, and helped make this event possible — thank you. Your participation and dedication are what make events like this so impactful.
We are truly grateful for the opportunity to bring our community together at this event. Furthermore, we are looking forward to continuing to create spaces where connections are made. This will ensure that resources are shared and individuals and their families will feel supported every step of the way.
Together, we are building a more inclusive New Jersey.
