                      HONORING PEOPLE INCORPORATED

  (Mr. HIGGINS of New York asked and was given permission to address

[[Page H5883]]

  

  Mr. HIGGINS of New York. Madam Speaker, I rise to honor People 
Incorporated, a leading nonprofit and human service agency in western 
New York.
  This year, People Incorporated is celebrating its 50th year of 
service to western New Yorkers with intellectual and developmental 
disabilities, as well as families and older adults.
  The agency was founded in 1970 by a small group of parents and 
professionals to better meet the needs of people with disabilities and 
their loved ones.
  Since then, People Incorporated has grown and expanded its services. 
They currently serve over 10,000 individuals and families every single 
year.
  People Incorporated provides access to housing and healthcare in a 
safe and welcoming environment. Their innovative services have helped 
thousands of people across western New York to live independently.
  I ask my colleagues to join me in thanking People Incorporated for 50 
years of compassionate community care.
