We have many different events each designed to support the unique needs of the individual, the family, and the community. You can find an event just for you whether you are a single parent, a married couple, a sibling, or a family wanting to connect with others in the community.
While we host community events for all members of the family including those with special needs, our main goal is to support families. We do this by wrapping around the family to provide tangible resources and faith based encouragement in community to each member of the family (dads, moms, siblings, married couples, and the families as a whole).
Yes we are a faith based charitably categorized 501c3 nonprofit. The journey with special needs can often be a hard road for families. HOPE is so important. We believe that hope comes from the encouragement and connection of community and ultimately from our lord and savior, Jesus Christ, in whom all hope is found.
