Kim will lead off our first ride on October 17—and when she’s not pedaling, you can bet she’ll be cheering on her fellow Citizens! 📣💛

We have a BIG goal of raising $75,000 for the 2026 I Believe In Brookwood campaign, and we need YOU!

Last chance to join us—the Brookwood Way® Conference is NEXT WEEK! There’s only so much you can learn about The Brookwood Community™ from a website, presentation or social media post. Sometimes, you need to come see Brookwood® in action.

The Brookwood Way® Conference, Sept. 21–25 in Brookshire, Texas, gives professionals serving adults with disabilities an opportunity to experience our model firsthand, connect with our team and Citizens, and explore practical approaches they can take back to their own organizations.

And there’s still time to join us—but only a few spots remain.

If The Brookwood Way® Conference has been on your radar, now is the time.

👉 Register today and come see us next week! https://brookwoodcommunity.org/center-for-learning

🍤 SHRIMPLY THE BEST KIND OF TEAMWORK! 🍤A Brookwood favorite is back on the menu this week at The Brookwood Café — SHRIMP SCAMPI! 😍🍝

And that teamwork doesn’t stop at the Café!
🌱 From Horticulture
🎨 to Ceramics
🛍️ to the Gift & Garden Center
🍽️ and throughout Brookwood®...

WE WORK TOGETHER! Citizens and Community Members bring different talents, abilities and strengths to the table — and it takes ALL of us working together to make The Brookwood Community™ successful.

And apparently, life is even better when there’s Shrimp Scampi involved. 😂🍤

That’s this week’s Café special, and it’s only here through Saturday! Grab your forks, round up the lunch crew, and snag your table now 👉 https://bit.ly/BWOpenTable

💛 WARNING: DONATING TO HAYLEY’S TEAM MAY RESULT IN A GIANT HUG. 💛 And around Brookwood®, that’s a pretty great return on investment!

Citizen Hayley—better known around campus as “The Hugging Machine”—has a BIG I Believe in Brookwood goal: $30,000! And y’all… SHE IS SOOO CLOSE! 🎉

Hayley has been part of The Brookwood Community™ for 22 YEARS, and she has packed a whole lot of purpose into those years!

🎨 She’s a Detail Painter in Stone Casting
🪴 She works in Horticulture
📚 She’s tried ALL the Brookwood Community College classes
💪 She gets moving with Heidi during BLOOM workouts
🤗 And, obviously, she has perfected the art of the HUG

But ask Hayley what she loves most about Brookwood, and it comes down to something pretty simple: everyone is accepted here. She loves her friends, her work and the staff members she says are awesome, kind and always helpful. 💛

Now it’s OUR turn to help Hayley!

She is closing in on her $30,000 goal, and every gift—big or small—gets her one step closer. Let’s see if we can push The Hugging Machine across that finish line TODAY! 🏁💛

🙏💚 PURPOSE. PRAYER. INTERDEPENDENCE. There’s something extra special about a first.

Citizen Luther has officially created his very first Prayer Bowl—and we couldn’t love this moment more! 🥹

Luther has found meaningful purpose at Brookwood® through our Grand Parkway Design Studio, a space generously donated by our friends at Gallery Furniture. And now, with the support of others, his own talents and a place to let those talents shine, Luther is creating something beautiful that will inspire prayer in someone else’s home.

That’s Interdependence—one of The Brookwood Community™ GOD RICH Core Values—in action. We were never meant to do life alone. We each have gifts to give, and when we use them together, beautiful things happen. 💚

📖 “Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others.” — 1 Peter 4:10

Way to go, Luther! May this be the first of MANY Prayer Bowls—and may every one remind us that God gives each of us unique gifts, purpose and a place to belong. 🙏✨

👍🚲 JOE SAYS THUMBS UP FOR BIKE FOR BROOKWOOD! 💛💛 Citizen Joe is geared up, ready to ride and VERY enthusiastic about Bike for Brookwood! And honestly, with a thumbs-up like that, how can you say no? 😄

Joe and his fellow Brookwood® Citizens have been training to take on an EPIC rides of 5-15 miles! They’re not just pedaling for bragging rights. They’re riding to raise funds for I Believe in Brookwood, supporting the programs that give Citizens meaningful work, purpose and a place to belong at The Brookwood Community™.

And this year, they have one BIG, BIG GOAL: $75,000! 🚲💰
