There is always, always, always something to be thankful for.

2013 has been an incredible year for DePaul. From the development of new housing projects to our President, Mark Fuller’s celebration of 35 years at DePaul, to our expansion into a South Carolina, and to our continued commitment to changing lives and creating futures. We have a lot for which to be thankful.

DePaul’s service to the community wouldn’t be possible, though, without the people we serve and our dedicated employees, and we couldn’t be more thankful for our clients, residents, staff, and their families.
