Pec Run With Me 5K

Bernards Parents for Exceptional Children (PEC), a vital community organization that fosters connections, raises awareness and provides tangible support to schools and students, is reviving our annual Run with Me 5K race and PEC family walk on Saturday, October 5, 2024, at the Bernards Twp Municipal Complex in Basking Ridge, NJ. This year’s PEC Run With Me 5K race proceeds will financially support renovating Our House’s newly purchased 5th residence in Bernards Twp. Our House Inc. is a local nonprofit with a similar mission to help individuals with disabilities reach their full potential. While Bernards Parents for Exceptional Children supports special needs students and their families throughout their schooling years, Our House assists post graduate individuals, and picks up where PEC leaves off. Our House, Inc. was created to provide inclusive and stimulating environments for individuals with disabilities through community residences, employment services, innovative day programs, social opportunities and various support services.  Over the past 40 years, Our House's residential services have expanded to include 16 group homes, 3 sets of supervised apartments, and 5 supported living apartments.  Additionally, OHI operates 4 Day Program sites and collaborates with various supported employment partners.  They currently support approximately 300 individuals across Essex, Morris, Middlesex, Somerset, and Union counties, with five of the houses located in the Bernards Township area.
