    "

    I cannot recall the last time I saw Dasha so happy and carefree and thoroughly enjoying herself with her peers.

    What makes our organization unique?

    ​

    ​

    The perspective we bring is family-oriented.  Our staff are parents or guardians of children who have experienced the same challenges and successes as the families we serve.

    ​

    We have walked in the shoes of being part of a family that deals with the daily realities, blessings, and challenges of having children with these special needs.

    OURSELVES

    We See

    IN EACH OTHER'S STORIES

    I went to a meeting today that made me feel....I don't know, less alone. I heard stories of others who have to overcome more obstacles than me and they still smile. It gives me hope that things will get better.....
