Caps off to an unforgettable season of growth, accomplishments, and new beginnings! 🎓✨
Our HOWL Transition Program and A-State ATLAS Transition Program graduation Party and Commencement were filled with smiles, laughter, proud moments, and memories we’ll never forget. Watching our students celebrate all they’ve accomplished was truly special, and we are so proud of the growth, determination, and success each student has shown along the way.
Thank you to everyone who supported, encouraged, and celebrated alongside our students and families. The future is bright, and this is only the beginning! ❤️🖤
Drivers had the opportunity to practice real-life traffic stop interactions in a safe and encouraging environment while connecting with local law enforcement officers. Experiences like these help promote understanding, build confidence, and strengthen communication for everyone involved.
We are so thankful to the officers and community partners who helped make this event impactful and successful. Together, we continue creating a more inclusive and supportive community! 💙

The start of the end of Graduation Week 🎓✨
We’re kicking it off by celebrating two incredible social work interns—Paris & Azariah!
So much of what happens at HOWL & ATLAS wouldn’t be possible without the behind-the-scenes work they’ve poured into this program. Their dedication, compassion, and heart for our students have not gone unnoticed.
We are so proud to have had them as part of our team ❤️🖤🐺
The future is so bright for both of you!
Today we celebrate inclusion, opportunity, and the amazing students who make our campus community stronger every single day.
Happy IPSE Day! Thankful for programs that empower students to grow academically, socially, and professionally while creating a more inclusive future for all. IPSE continues to make a lasting impact by proving that everyone deserves the opportunity to belong, learn, and thrive.
