Need a mobile application to supplement your publication? That’s us. With The ADS Group, the mediums are myriad. Whether it’s an app, a disc or video on demand, we’re the ones to help you get your story told. Our crew tag-teamed the show while tearing all over Manhattan to meet with clients and vendors.

The doors were flung open and the librarian-style smack-down has commenced. At the Javits Center in New York City, books are the bomb this week. We’re excited to be exhibiting again here at Book Expo of America (BEA) – a great chance to visit clients and make new connections. Mike and Mitch are raring to go, though the line for their autographs doesn’t seem to be as long as Kristi Yamaguchi’s. That’s probably just because nobody has seen Mike on figure skates lately. Our booth is nestled snugly among current clients and new friends and the traffic has been steady and enthusiastic. The excitement is palpable as everyone converges here with a shared love – the love of words. There are plenty of booths at BEA if you want a physical publication, but we are the ones to talk to for mobile apps and video on demand – and people are hungry for both. If you can’t make it, we’ll keep you apprised of highlights – but if you’re here in New York, stop by our booth, #4228, for an interactive demo…or for Mike’s...

Yesterday, the Minneapolis Convention Center was transformed. Transformed into a one-stop service center aimed at removing some of the barriers facing our homeless population. Transformed into a place of hope. Project Homeless Connect included 400 services providers and 1100 volunteers, all there serving 2000 guests who are currently homeless or existing on the brink. Hot meals, haircuts,hair replacement systems, dental work, legal help, employment information and housing advocates. All gathered under one roof in a show of love for our community, donating time and talent to create a space where people could gather to receive information and critical services in one location. Volunteers worked with guests on a one-on-one basis, escorting them through the maze of services and helping guests prioritize their plan of attack for the day. We shared stories and we shared lunch. The goal is that the homeless left the convention center with a renewed sense of hope, and that the volunteers left the convention center with a renewed sense of purpose – eradicating these problems to the best of our ability. The motto of Project Homeless Connect is Ending Homelessness, One Person at a Time. This is a great example of impact. If you think you’re too small to make a difference, think again. Even if you make a lasting impression or a hopeful connection with one person, you made that person’s day a little bit better. Isn’t that reason enough to volunteer? Project Homeless Connect runs these events twice a year and the next one will come around in December. We’ll be there again and we hope you will be, too....
