Mainstay Life Services

Last week, several people from Mainstay attended Keystone Human Services's June Summit where Lindsay was a featured speaker!

Lindsay is Mainstay's Peer Advocate and President of Voices of Mainstay. "Voices of Mainstay has supported me to feel empowered and successful at home, in my community and in the workforce," shared Lindsay. "At my job at Mainstay I welcome new employees and give presentations at orientations."

KHS's June Summit has become a platform to highlight new thinking and global good practices around service provision for people with disabilities while creating a space for learning. The focus in 2026 was on individual and collective leadership around disability rights.

Thank you for sharing your story, Lindsay!

Members of the Mainstay Community had an incredible day at Kennywood Park on Monday, 6/8! It was a sunny and hot day as more than 250 people enjoyed rollercoasters, splash rides, bumper cars, Potato Patch fries, fried dough, and more. The group came together for a picnic then headed back out for more excitement and fun!

Big thanks to the Irene & Walter Jacob Supplemental Needs Fund Committee for planning another spectacular day. And congratulations to Royce for winning the t-shirt design contest.

Here's a few awesome scenes from the day - watch for more highlights and fun in a Reel coming on Saturday!
