The stage is set and we cannot wait 🎭
Fourteen incredibly talented ICAN performers have been pouring their hearts into rehearsals for our upcoming showcase, From Screen to Stage. From memorizing lines to practicing songs and perfecting every moment, they have been working hard to bring an unforgettable night of music, drama, and laughter to the stage.
We are so proud of the dedication, courage, and creativity they have shown throughout this process, and we are excited for them to finally share it with you.

🚨 Last chance to join Team ICAN at the LA 5K! 🚨
If you’ve been thinking about it, this is your sign. Registration closes at the end of the day on March 4, and we’d love to see you with us at Dodger Stadium on March 7.
The LA 5K with Team ICAN isn’t about being the fastest runner. It’s about showing up for a great cause. Walk it, run it, roll it, or stroll it with friends. However you participate, every step helps support adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities.
Each participant commits to a $200 fundraising goal, and our team will help you get there along the way.
Spots are limited, and this is the final call to join the team.

Let’s make every step count. 🧡
#TeamICAN #LA5K
“I discovered hidden talents I didn’t know I had.”
“It makes me feel relaxed and good.”
“It’s one of my favorite things.”
That is the power of art at ICAN.
Across our locations, our art rooms are spaces where adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities grow in skill, confidence, and self expression.
The love for art is strong. The need for funding is real.
Your support helps us provide supplies, equipment, and quality programs that go beyond what the state funding covers.
Invest in creativity. Invest in growth. Invest in people. Learn more at ICAN.org (link in bio)
Big smiles over here in Long Beach 😁
Huge shoutout to @pds_health for donating Smile Kits to our ICAN clients! We’re all about the smiles at ICAN, and having partners who care about health, confidence, and joy means the world to us.
Because when our community has the tools to keep their smiles shining… everybody wins. 💙
Thank you, PDS Health Foundation, for investing in our clients and helping us spread even more reasons to smile!
Competitive or casual. Fast paced or walk and talk.
The LA5K with Team ICAN can be whatever you want it to be.
Never run a 5K before? No stress.
Just want to stroll and enjoy the morning? Perfect.
Want to push your pace a little? Go for it.
You can participate solo, with a friend, or like our Long Beach Social Program Client Manager Becca, bring the whole family and make it a morning out together.
On March 7, we’re heading to Dodger Stadium to walk, run, or roll in support of adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities. Each participant commits to a $200 fundraising goal, and our team will help you get there.

Behind the scenes of something special 🎭✨
Our performers are putting in the work… rehearsing lines, practicing songs, fine tuning every moment and sharing what they love most about ICAN Theater. From building confidence to making lifelong friendships, this program is so much more than a performance.
And when you hear what they are most excited about for From Screen to Stage… it will make you want a front row seat.
Come experience the music, the joy, the laughter, and the hard work paying off on stage.

Huge congratulations to our THREE newest ServSafe Food Handler Certificate holders! 👏🍽️
They put in the work, stayed focused, and earned the results. We are so proud of their dedication and commitment to growing their skills.
This is more than a certificate. It’s confidence, opportunity, and doors opening. We can’t wait to see what’s in store next! 💪✨
Inspired by the perfect view of the Pacific Ocean, our Art by the Beach club turned creativity into coastline magic 🌊🎨
There’s something about fresh air, crashing waves, and good friends that brings out the best in our artists. From brush strokes to bold ideas, our clients captured the beauty right in front of them and made it their own.
This is what happens when opportunity meets inspiration. 💙
