A woman saw a growing NEED in the community and gathered a team to create a program to help address it. They started in a basement but grew their organization to three stories tall as the NEED got smaller. The program used technology to allow parents with children access to assistance and real strategies that helped the children become more independent by taking part in everyday activities like making friends and playing. The program provided caregivers to give parents respite so they could have date nights while the children played with siblings and received help with difficult things.
