A New Era at People Inc.
Our new President and CEO, Anne McCaffrey, arrived in March and has hit the ground running, to say the least! Anne has been meeting with stakeholders and with many of our 4,000+ employees, including a live video conference with the entire agency on her first day.  

With a background as the former Mayor of the City of Lockport and then President of Eastern Niagara Hospital, jumping into advocating for budgetary changes to assist people with intellectual and developmental disabilities is a natural fit for her.   

Anne is working with the Senior Leadership Team to get out to as many of our locations as possible. And if you see her around the Buffalo, Niagara or Rochester areas, be sure to say hello!

Deaf Access Services
Celebrates 40 Years
Deaf Access Services, a program of People Inc., celebrated in style in April, with a fabulous fund-raising and friend-raising event on the stage at Shea’s Buffalo Theatre. 
The program supports Deaf and hard of hearing people in Western New York through services such as American Sign Language, education, community training, community navigation services, refugee and immigration services, and more.  
With the theme “Be the Light,” a sold-out crowd was treated to speakers, awards, and raffles.
