Chimes

A fine Thanksgiving tradition continued at The Chimes School this week. Again this year, students and staff assembled and distributed 100 boxes with Holiday Meals and all the trimmings for families of students enrolled in the school. The staff and students did an amazing job unloading the supplies and packaging them into boxes. We are thankful for the Chimes facilities team who helped deliver all the various food items and for our transportation team who helped deliver many of the boxes to families across central Maryland. From the Chimes family to yours....Happy Thanksgiving!

A fantastic time was had at Liberty Club West this week! 🎉 A huge thank-you to the Baltimore County Police Department for coming out to visit our program. Their kindness, energy, and engagement made it a truly fun-filled day for everyone. Our participants loved meeting the officers, playing games, and learning more about the important work they do in our community. Moments like these remind us how strong and supportive our community truly is! Thank you again, Baltimore County Police Department, for making the day so special!

Chimes (and Baltimore County and the State of Maryland) are all fortunate to have brilliant, compassionate leaders who make critical services to people with developmental disabilities possible. Thank you all for your leadership and for such an amazing event yesterday.
