New Horizons Village Celebrates 40 Years at Western Day Celebration
UNIONVILLE, CT — New Horizons Village proudly invites the community to celebrate its 40th Anniversary during its annual Western Day Celebration, a special event honoring four decades of providing accessible housing and support services to adults with physical disabilities.
Since opening its doors in 1986, New Horizons Village has become one of Connecticut’s most unique residential communities, providing wheelchair-accessible housing and essential support services that enable adults with physical disabilities to live independently. Today, the Village is home to 115 residents who enjoy not only accessible apartments, but also transportation, backup caregiving, recreational opportunities, and a vibrant community.
The Western Day Celebration will bring together residents, families, donors, volunteers, community partners, and local leaders for a day of fun, entertainment, and reflection on the organization’s remarkable journey. Guests can enjoy western-themed entertainment, catered lunch, music, and opportunities to learn more about New Horizons’ mission and impact. Join us on Wednesday, October 21st from 12:00pm – 2:00pm at New Horizons Village which is located at 37 Bliss Memorial Road, Unionville, CT. Tickets are $50 each. Register for the event by calling 860-675-4711 or by emailing [email protected]
“This celebration is about honoring the visionaries who believed that people with physical disabilities deserved the opportunity to live independently in an accessible, supportive community,” said Ashley Dunn, Chief Executive Officer of New Horizons. “As we celebrate our 40th anniversary, we also look toward the future—expanding affordable, accessible housing and ensuring that generations to come have the same opportunities for independence and community.”
The Western Day Celebration serves as both a celebration of New Horizons’ rich history and an opportunity for the broader community to experience firsthand the vibrant spirit of the Village. Community members, businesses, and supporters are encouraged to attend and celebrate this important milestone!
