Nearly 300 People Inc. friends and family attended “Better Together...A Night of Celebration” on May 9 to celebrate the coming together of the programs, services and agencies that make up People Inc. today. The evening included a wonderful choral performance by the “Traveling Troupe,” whose members attend People Inc.’s Arts Experience program. Guests also enjoyed live music, casino-style games, and an auction including original pieces created through the ArtsWork program.

This event celebrated the expansion of People Inc.'s family of services over the last year and welcomed the programs of Deaf Access Services and Autism Services Inc. The evening also marked the coming together of the Rivershore and Southeast Foundations with the People Inc. Foundation. Event proceeds will assist the People Inc. Foundation in its support of the newly expanded comprehensive arts, music, and theater initiative under the ArtsWork umbrella.

Thank you to all our sponsors, including Gold Sponsor, Creative Structures Services; and Silver Sponsors, Great Lakes Health, KeyBank, M&T Bank, Parkview Health Services and Upstate Pharmacy.

A new overview video of the agency premiered. The video includes embedded captions and an ASL interpreter.
