New space. New energy. New beginnings. 💫 We were honored to welcome residents to Cypress at Ardendale as they begin a new chapter after relocating from Ardenwood Village in Baton Rouge, LA. This wasn’t just a move—it was a moment. Through our New Beginnings Bash, TAP brought together incredible partners across our core pillars—education, workforce development, healthcare, and supportive services—to ensure residents feel connected, supported, and empowered from day one. From resources to relationships, we’re building more than programs… we’re building pathways. 🤝🏾 Because at TAP, we don’t just serve communities— we walk alongside them as they rise. #TheAscentProject #NewBeginnings #CommunityImpact #WorkforceDevelopment #HealthEquity #EducationMatters #StrongerTogether #PeoplePlanInAction #HUDStrong

Our Project Manager and Family Support Coordinator, both vital members of the Baton Rouge TAP team, had an amazing time delivering nutritious organic frozen meals to the wonderful families at Ardenwood Village. It was such a rewarding experience to support these families and ensure they have access to healthy, convenient meals. We are incredibly grateful for our partnership with @threeoclockproject , whose collaboration helps us make a meaningful impact in the lives of families by promoting healthy eating and nutrition. Together, we’re working to create a stronger, healthier community—one meal at a time! #HealthyEating #CommunitySupport #Partnership #TAPBTR

Twenty-six students that participate consistently in our after-school program and turn in their progress reports were given the opportunity to go to an exciting volleyball game on the campus of LSU! With their jumbotron dances, the students wowed the audience. During the halftime show, TAP was also recognized on the jumbotron. As LSU emerged victorious 💪🏾🥇, everyone had an amazing time supporting the team! #TheAscentProject #LSU #BatonRouge #Atlanta #Community #Sports #Youth-enrichment

TAP is excited to celebrate the graduation of two of our residents from Ardenwood Village👩🏾‍🎓. They both completed rigorous training that strengthened their workforce development skills, and they proudly achieved perfect attendance throughout the course. In addition, they successfully completed a class on “Exploring a Career in Multi-Family Facilities.” A special highlight was Miss Shaw, who gave an inspiring speech during the ceremony. Congratulations to both on this outstanding achievement! #TAP #batonrouge #workforcedevelopment #hopeminbr #cnigrant
