Group Home Pizza Program to Support Direct Care Staff & Residents

Life-Skills, Inc. is a participating agency in the Group Home Pizza Program.

This program was created by two moms (partnering with Domino’s Pizza) who wanted to show appreciation and acknowledgment to direct care staff at group homes by sending gift certificates for meals for staff and residents.  Direct care staff are working overtime during this crisis, and this meal program gives them a break in preparing a meal and gives residents a fun treat!

Special thanks to Cheryl Ryan Chan and Aniko Houlihan Baglaneas Eves for such a thoughtful idea!
