Description
On Saturday, May 3rd, join us for an exhilarating afternoon of elegant hors d'oeuvres and delicious desserts, Mint Juleps, Silent and Live Auction items, pony wagering (50/50 raffle), and viewing of the 140th running of the Kentucky Derby.
The proceeds from this event will benefit all of PRS' programs that support individuals living with mental illness, substance use disorders, mild intellectual disabilities, autism spectrum disorders or any combination of these. PRS partners with our clients to increase independence, manage disability, and work toward volunteerism, educational opportunities, employment or other valued roles of their choosing.
It is thanks to community partners like you that PRS served over 900 clients during FY2013. We are proud of our clients' accomplishments, which included:
- 98% of PRS clients stayed out of the psychiatric hospital;
- 67% of PRS Employment Services clients actively seeking employment were employed (over twice the national average for these populations);
- 100% of PRS Community Support Services and Community Housing clients maintained their housing and avoided eviction.
