Spectrum For Living is marking their 30th anniversary this year and the nonprofit organization will hold a celebration at the Edgewood Country Club in River Vale Saturday.

The group helps adults with physical and developmental disabilities by providing 20 group homes, six training centers and in-home service in Bergen, Passaic, Monmouth, and Middlesex Counties.

Locally, Spectrum operates a group home in Glen Rock, as well as a training center in Westwood to provide services and help clients learn various skills.

“Spectrum for Living has touched the lives of thousands of individuals since its founding in Closter in 1983... We continue our mission each day in providing premier quality services and care to one of New Jersey most vulnerable citizens,” Spectrum CEO and President Michael Lubetkin said in a press release.

The 30th anniversary celebration Saturday will include dancing, raffles and games, starting with a cocktail hour at 6 and a buffet dinner at 7 p.m. Tickets cost $130 each and are available by calling 201-358-8000 ext. 227 or emailing lturiello@spectrumforliving.org.
