We have a fun new accessory for you when you visit The Kistler Center! All visitors (including parents, DSPs, any contracted workers, etc.) are required to stop and check in at the front desk when entering the building. When you check in, you will be given a bright green visitor sticker! 💚

We want to make sure that everyone feels and is safe in our building. This is an easy way for us to help make that happen. Thank you for understanding!

If you have questions about the visitor stickers, you can message us or call the center during business hours at 479-785-4677.

Today, we are celebrating one year of Gina being our Executive Director! Gina has been an incredible asset to our organization over the last year and has continued to lead with grace, vision, and excitement. We asked staff and the Board of Directors to describe Gina in three words. The results are in the second picture. 🩷

The Board of Directors also submitted the following note:

“On behalf of the Board of Directors, thank you, Gina, for your outstanding leadership during your first year as Executive Director. Your dedication, vision, and commitment have made a meaningful impact, and we are grateful for all you have accomplished in such a short time!”

Thank you, Gina, for always bringing energy, positivity, and fun to the workplace! Here's to year two! ✨🤩
