LifePath Celebrates Supported Living Consumer's Success More than 40 friends, former teachers and LifePath staff members gathered at LifePath's Sellersville office February 28, 2008 to celebrate the success of one special young man. Louis, a member of LifePath's supported living program, was on hand to receive his diploma from Penn Ridge High School. Despite having graduated five years ago, Louis, 26, was unable to attend the ceremony with his fellow classmates to receive his diploma, so his friends at LifePath decided to celebrate his accomplishments with a surprise party. Congratulations, Louis!

LifePath
will be participating in its first "Walk for a Healthy Community
presented by Highmark Blue Shield" on Saturday, June 14, 2008. LifePath
is participating in the walk because it gives our organization the
opportunity to raise funds to support our programs for individuals
with developmental disabilities. The 5K walk and one-mile fun walk
will take place in Historic Downtown Bethlehem. The fourth
annual "Walk for a Healthy Community presented by Highmark Blue
Shield" will benefit 13 Lehigh Valley health and human service agencies.
Since Highmark Blue Shield underwrites the cost of the walk, 100
percent of the money raised by walkers supports the 13 participating
organizations, including LifePath.
