Families First: Strong Support with Amerisure and Shepherd Center /blog/families-first-amerisure-shepherd-center/ Tue, 31 Mar 2026 10:00:00 +0000 /?p=8679 Read more]]> Last month, the fourth-floor therapy gym at in Atlanta, GA looked a little different than it normally does during the day. Wheelchairs lined the walls. Therapy equipment stood quietly in the background.

After a long day of rehabilitation sessions, patients, families and loved ones gathered around buffet tables while volunteers from Amerisure and served more than 100 meals and welcomed each guest as they arrived.

Families First: Strong Support with Amerisure and Shepherd Center
Amerisure, Yates Insurance Agency and Shepherd Center teams host and serve at a Shepherd Center family dinner in Atlanta, GA.

They that they didn’t have to plan, prepare, or clean up after. Conversations began to unfold across the tables and laughter surfaced easily during dinner, growing louder through a few spirited rounds of bingo. By the end of the evening, strangers and new friends alike were trading stories, jokes, and the kind of easy conversation that makes a room feel just a little bit more like home.

It may have been one dinner, but when life is often defined by endurance and incremental progress, even one impactful evening can make all the difference.

When Recovery Reshapes Everything for Families

Each year in the United States, people sustain a spinal cord injury, often from events that arrive without warning. Behind every fall, car accident or medical emergency statistic is a family that is navigating a new and unexpected reality. In a single moment, routines must shift; family and friends reorganize around hospital schedules, and those long-term adjustments that will begin to reshape daily life.

At Shepherd Center, recovery is never treated as an individual journey. Nationally recognized for rehabilitation outcomes, focuses not only on helping patients regain independence, but also on equipping families with the confidence and support they need for life beyond discharge. It’s a powerful reminder that recovery does not belong to one person alone, it also belongs to those who stand beside them.

“We’re so honored to partner with Shepherd Center and Amerisure to support families navigating difficult journeys,” said Maggie Fischer, Managing Partner, Personal Lines Marketing Manager at Yates Insurance Agency.

“Opportunities like this are a wonderful way to bring people together, and a reminder that sometimes the most meaningful support comes from simply being present for those when they need it most.”

At Amerisure, that idea resonates deeply with the core values that make up who we are. Much like the work taking place every day at Shepherd Center, we meet people in those moments that arrive just as unexpectedly—after an accident, a catastrophic injury, or an unforeseen disruption that suddenly changes the course of a life or a livelihood.

Powerful Partnerships

Amerisure’s relationship with Shepherd Center extends well beyond a single evening of service. Recognizing the strain placed on families traveling long distances for rehabilitation care, Amerisure helped support the development of the 12th floor of the , a 16-story housing tower that opened in 2024 and more than doubles Shepherd Center’s capacity to house patients and families who live more than 60 miles away.

The impact is both practical and deeply personal. Proximity allows spouses to attend early-morning therapy sessions, parents can remain present for milestone moments, and it reduces the emotional and financial strain of long commutes for countless, committed loved ones.

This partnership reflects Amerisure’s broader approach to community engagement. Through the Amerisure Charitable Foundation (ACF), we continue to support nonprofit organizations that strengthen the communities where our employees, agency partners, and 鶹ԭ live and work. Since 2020, the ACF has contributed more than $732,000 directly to charitable causes, focused on everything from health and education to community resilience.

“Amerisure’s greatest strength is our people,” said Erin Buddie, Amerisure’s Chief Human Resources Officer. “Each teammate brings our service culture to life through the way we support our communities and one another.”

“Partnerships like ours with Yates Insurance and Shepherd Center show what that commitment looks like in action—helping ensure families facing life-changing moments know that they’re not navigating them alone.”

A Shared Commitment to What Comes Next

As the recent Shepherd Center Family Dinner wound down, volunteers stacked chairs and gathered leftovers for the night shift to enjoy. Families lingered in conversation before returning to patient floors. Tomorrow’s therapy sessions will begin again in the morning.

At their best, both healthcare and insurance are built on a certain responsibility and trust—bringing dedicated professionals together to help people recover, rebuild, and find stability when uncertainty appears. Whether it’s helping to expand housing so families can remain close during rehabilitation, sitting beside them at a shared dinner table after a long day of therapy, or guiding a policyholder through the aftermath of an unexpected loss, our goal remains the same: supporting our communities through moments that call for the best of care and the compassion of those you can count on.
