Beacon

A conference for family members of persons with intellectual or developmental disabilities.


Join Fr. Enzo of St. Louis Center and the Diocese of Lansing for a full day of learning opportunities!

The Center is on a mission to make sure that residents are always provided with a secure and loving home, and your help can take this mission even further. Fr. Enzo and staff will be at the Beacon Conference to share the work happening at St. Louis Center.

Fr. Enzo, along with other professionals in the field of I/DD care, will be there as facilitators and speakers. St. Louis Center staff will be in attendance to talk to guests about how the Center is a “lighthouse of hope” for people who have I/DD and their families.

Mass begins a day filled with inspirational talks and practical presentations on an array of topics including navigating SSI benefits, working with your school district to obtain services, and planning for the future. A vendor exhibit and the opportunity to meet with professionals in a smaller group setting are also offered. Mass and lunch are provided.

If you are able, consider joining the conference to hear more about caring and getting services for people with I/DD.
