Celebrating 45 Years
The Mary Campbell Center sends you best wishes on our 45th Anniversary, this Sunday May 23. Your steadfast support has nourished our mission for many wonderful years. I am proud to be part of a team with the privilege of spending every day in the company of the 68 amazing residents and the respite participants who choose our care. Our Children & Youth Program is flourishing, reaching hundreds of children, young adults and their families. Together, we celebrate this milestone with gratitude to our Founders, our Board of Directors, and with thanks to our staff, consultant partners, volunteers, families, and our many friends.
In the next five years leading up to our 50th Anniversary in 2026, MCC will continue to adapt and change to meet the needs of the people we serve. Our plans are moving forward to enlarge the Vermeil Physical Therapy and Physical Development Program facility. We will renovate all resident rooms to reflect the homelike atmosphere that has always been a hallmark of The Center. MCC will employ the newest tools to enhance resident education, communication, and freedom of movement. We will be a leader in service to people with disabilities with abundant energy, imagination, and compassion.
Off we go on the path to 50! We are truly grateful for your support, and hope you stay with us on the journey.
Regina J. Coffiey, Executive Director

Since 1976, The Center has provided residency, respite care, and day programs to help young adults and adults with disabilities achieve personal goals and increased independence. Children with special needs are part of our community, participating in programs after school and in summer camps. The Center recognizes the dreams of all people, regardless of physical or cognitive ability, and we urge the search for a quality of life that is vital to everyone. -
