Festive Door Decorating Contest
To kick off the month, we held a door decorating contest for both tenants and staff. Creativity was in full swing, and everyone got into the spirit! One of our tenants took home the winning title for their door, while our Early Childhood Family Education (ECFE) program staff won the top spot among employees.
Pancake Breakfast & Halloween Costume Giveaway
We hosted a pancake breakfast, thanks to the help of Pat Benson, where tenants enjoyed a warm breakfast and picked out Halloween costumes for their kids. The event drew 43 tenants and their children, and the excitement was contagious as kids found costumes that made their Halloween extra special.
Dental Care Partnership
Through a partnership with Anne Romberg, our shelter Health and Wellness
Coordinator, we hosted dental sign-up days to help tenants access dental appointments covered by a grant. Our first session was such a hit that Anne will now be visiting weekly in November, helping even more tenants secure free dental care!
New Parenting Class through ECFE
Courtney, our lead ECFE teacher, has become certified to lead the Circles of Security class. She’s teamed up with another ECFE teacher from ISD709 to offer an 8-week parenting course, free for tenants. This program is a great resource for parents wanting to strengthen family connections and build supportive parenting skills.
Pumpkin Carving Fun
For one of her programming days, Holly, our Youth Program Coordinator, led a pumpkin carving session for the kids. The kids loved creating their spooky masterpieces, showing great care with their tools as they worked on their pumpkins!
Halloween Trick-or-Treat & Pizza Party
Halloween night was filled with spooky delight as kids trick-or-treated down our staff hallways. Thanks to Nicole, our community engagement coordinator, the halls were decorated with festive, spooky décor. Kids and staff enjoyed free pizza and soda donated by a community member who also helps our tenants with tax filing each year. Staff and tenants dressed up in costume, and the kids left with full stomachs and smiles.
Welcoming Adrienne, Our New Family Shelter Advocate
We’re thrilled to welcome Adrienne, our new Family Shelter Advocate, to the Stabilization Services team. She has jumped right in, filling every unit in the family shelter and working tirelessly to help each family find permanent housing. Her dedication is already making a big impact!
October at Steve O'Neil Apartments was all about building community and supporting our tenants. We can’t wait to see what the coming months bring!

I'm really pleased to share Space Waves with you. This game is a result of my passion for science fiction and a longtime goal to create something genuinely remarkable. I hope you love the voyage as much as I enjoyed bringing it to life.
