We heard that some of you have been egg-stremely curious as to what’s been up with our baby chicks. 🕯️🐣 Here’s your update: they should be here any minute!😍
We just completed our final egg candling—where we check for fertility or embryos— and are expecting 3 babies to peck their way earth-side any day now! The term “egg candling” comes from hundreds of years ago when the bright flame from a candle would be held under an egg. This illuminated the inside, revealing air pockets, indicating the egg is fertilized. We also learned that eggshell color typically predicts feather color, but it can ultimately vary. From our white eggs, we’re expecting yellow or black feathered baby chicks. 🐥
Our residents have thoroughly enjoyed this process, and we absolutely cannot wait to see it all come full circle! What color chicks do you think we’ll get? 🤔

Our residents felt the love at the Redemptive Love Farm (@redemptivelovefarm)! 🪿🐐🐇🦙🐮🦚🐓🐪💚
Whether it was petting or feeding animals, exploring the farm, or meeting new wildlife, there was no shortage of fun to be found. We are so grateful to Redemptive Love Farm for welcoming our IL crew with open arms, and incredibly touched by their mission of caring for and rehabilitating farm animals & livestock. Be sure to add them to your Summer activities bucket list! ☀️

Celebrating #AutisticPride today and every day! 🌟💚
June 18th is recognized globally as #AutisticPrideDay—a day to celebrate the strength and uniqueness of the neurodivergent community. Rather than spread awareness, Autistic Pride Day serves to foster acceptance, fight towards inclusion, and challenge outdated misconceptions.
Through embracing pride and amplifying autistic voices, we can help reduce stigma, creating more diverse, supportive communities for everyone. 🏠
This Friday is Juneteenth. ❤️🖤💚
Juneteenth serves to honor the day—June 19, 1865—that the last group of enslaved Americans in Galveston, Texas were notified of their freedom—over 2 years after the signing of the Emancipation Proclamation. Let us use this day to reflect on history while celebrating the resilience, culture, and freedom of the Black community.
Our offices will be closed Friday, 6/19, and resume normal business hours on Monday, 6/22.
🌈☀️💐 June Birthday Celebration 💐☀️🌈
Each month, our incredible staff and Family Social Network get together to celebrate the amazing residents with upcoming birthdays – making for a night of great food, great fun, and even greater friendship.
We just celebrated 7 residents’ birthdays, one of whom is new to life at IL! 🥳 It was so heartwarming to see them building connections, community, and confidence in real time. We’re so grateful to everyone who steps up to make nights like these so special. 💚

We had the chance to revisit history with @twamflorida at the Time Travel to Florida 1776 festival, celebrating 250 years of America’s story.
Our residents experienced what life looked like for those who came before them, spending the afternoon immersed in the past with reenactments, interactive crafts, dancing, music, and more! As much as we enjoyed our blast to the past, we were happy to end the day with lunch from the modern marvel known to many as Whataburger.
Special thank you to @goodwoodmuseumandgardens for hosting this unforgettable event! 💚
