Mainstream Living was awarded a $500 grant from the Story City Friends Foundation.  The grant will be used to purchase a deep freezer and patio furniture for our Story City home, which serves five individuals with disabilities.  

Mainstream Living has received a $2000 grant from Altrusa International of Ames.  The grant will be used to purchase components necessary to operate lift systems in our residential settings.  Lifts are used to move and position individuals who are considered medically fragile and ensure safety for both the member and staff.  

Altrusa International of Ames is an organization of service-minded, big-hearted people. They work to address needs in the community through grants and volunteer opportunities for their members.  For additional information on Altrusa, please visit: http://www.ames-altrusa.org/.

In order to create an environment where Mainstream Living employees are appropriately recognized for their contributions that reflect the mission, vision, values, and member-centered focus of the organization, we are pleased to announce our new Employee Recognition Program.  The program will offer monthly, quarterly, and annual awards.  Nominations may be submitted by peers, members/guardians, managers, or leaders within the organization.  Nominations are simple and can be submitted through our website by clicking here.
