Stevens Center Sanford

Stevens Center Sanford Our goal is to help such individuals be respected and active participants in their community.

Stevens Center is a non-profit organization that empowers individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities through programs that promote independence, inclusion, and community engagement. The Stevens Center focuses on providing support to individuals of all ages who have a developmental disability--a significant disability beginning before age 22 (the 'developmental years' of a person'

s life) and that require specialized supports. The Stevens Center is founded on Jane Stevens' donation of 16 acres, where she desired a facility to be built "where individuals with disabilities are treated as first class citizens."

What a beautiful evening for our June First Friday! We enjoyed delicious hamburgers and hot dogs, friendly games of corn hole, and plenty of indoor and outdoor fun. We always enjoy connecting with the people we serve, families, staff, and community members.

A special thank you to Pfizer⁠ for their continued support of Stevens Center and for helping make events like this possible. We are so appreciative of our community partners who invest in creating opportunities for connection, recreation, and meaningful experiences.

Thank you to everyone who joined us. We loved spending the evening together and look forward to seeing you at the next First Friday. If you attended, share your favorite photos in the comments below. We love to see all of your smiling faces!

Week 1 of Happy Day Camp is complete ☀️

What a wonderful start to the summer filled with connection, learning, and fun.

Our Explorers enjoyed visits from the Sanford Fire Department and the Sanford Police Department, along with Story Time with Abby and Music with Riley.

Our Adventurers visited the Broadway Zoological Park, enjoyed a visit from Holly’s Nest, and participated in music with Tori.

We also want to extend our sincere thanks to Parks & Recreation and our favorite lifeguard Stacie for helping make pool days safe, welcoming, and fun.

We are especially grateful for the strong community partners who show up for our individuals and help make experiences like this possible.

Most importantly, our staff and individuals are at the heart of everything we do. Their energy, growth, and joy are what make Happy Day Camp so special.

Here’s to an amazing summer ahead 💛

We are excited to announce the next chapter of leadership for our Connections Day Supports Program with David Baum serving as the newly appointed Director.

David brings a genuine passion for supporting individuals with disabilities, a commitment to person-centered services, and a vision for continued growth and excellence. We are confident that his leadership will build upon the strong foundation our team has worked hard to establish and the relationships we have built throughout our community.

David is supported by an experienced leadership team with more than 70 years of combined experience in developmental disability services, program operations, regulatory compliance, quality assurance, and person-centered care. Together, we understand that providing exceptional services requires knowledge, experience, accountability, and an unwavering commitment to quality.

At Connections Day Supports, we are proud to maintain CARF Accreditation, reflecting our dedication to meeting internationally recognized standards for service quality, safety, and continuous improvement. Every day, our team works to provide meaningful opportunities, individualized supports, and enriching experiences that help participants achieve their goals and live fulfilling lives.

Connections Day Supports is a program of Stevens Center and remains independently operated with its own leadership, staff, policies, and service model. For information about our services or enrollment opportunities, please contact us directly at 919-776-4048 and ask for David Baum or Kelly Ward-Creagh. If funding is a barrier, our team can help guide individuals and families through available funding options and connect you with resources to begin the process.

Please join us in congratulating David on this leadership role and wishing him continued success!
