Where Do You Find Encouragement?
My church, my respite weekends, at home, and EchoingU. Ms. Cori and I started, “lock the key.” I come to class at EchoingU, locking my problems away. I give Ms. Cori the key to hold on to so I can learn and have fun.

Featured Faces is a way to get to know some of the individuals that make Echoing Hills so special! As we focus on those we serve and the team members that serve them, we will also focus on our 2022 theme – Encourage, Believe, Inspire.

We invite you to reflect on these three words and think: What can I do to encourage others? How do I believe my God-given talents can change the world? How can I let my words and actions inspire someone today? You may notice you are changing someone’s life, maybe even your own!
