The 5K J is a fun run to benefit Cornerstone Services. Since 1969, Cornerstone has been providing support and services to individuals with disabilities so they can live, work, and thrive in the communities they call home. By supporting Cornerstone, you are helping individuals with a variety of disabilities to achieve the goals that are most important to them! Over 1,000 individuals currently trust Cornerstone Services to assist them to be as independent as possible while living and working in the community.
