Our Community

Our community is extraordinary … rich with musicians, artists, passionate volunteers, curious learners, dedicated employees and so many more. Inspirational stories of our community members abound.

meet: Dennis

Dennis has routines at his cottage on Oak Street. His housemates and support staff are part of his family.

meet: Julie

Beneath Julie’s soft-spoken demeanor lies a passionate advocate. It would be impossible to calculate the value of her work.

meet: Wendell

Wendell Arneson knew from the age of six that he wanted to be an artist. So, it’s no surprise that LBSA and the local award-winning artist eventually found each other.
