Your Special Day 

Who is the program for?

​

Your Special Day was created to support children and youth whose parents have chronic debilitating conditions. These children often have to grow up faster and take on shoulder more responsibility than others their peers. In this program, each child will receive a special day of fun and excitement, and a birthday care every year while in the program. Additionally, they'll engage in specialized group activities and educational sessions alongside their peers, fostering a sense of belonging and understanding within a supportive community.

​

​

What are the goals and objectives of the program?
​

The Your Special Day program is designed to remind boys and girls that their circumstances do not define them by providing them with a number of outlets and services to free them from stressors.

​

This program's objective is to free these bright, beautiful children from their typical stressors and give them an opportunity to take some time to live and laugh.
