Please note that Emerge will be closed on Memorial Day!

Remi is discovering new ways to express herself. ☀💖

With support from Emerge, she has developed regulation skills that help her find healthy outlets to express her emotions and communicate her thoughts and feelings more effectively.

Emerge helped Remi open new doors, and your support gives children like her the tools and opportunities to keep growing and thriving.

There’s something powerful about watching a child walk across a graduation stage after all the hard work it took to get there.

Friday, we celebrated the graduates of The Emerge School — students who have grown in confidence, communication, independence, and joy throughout their journey. Moments like these are possible because of a community that believes every child deserves the support to reach their fullest potential.

To our graduates: we are endlessly proud of you, and honored to have been part of your story. 🎓💙

Emerge scholars are having a field day-- literally! 😂🦋

Today, we're enjoying all the fun in the sun: bounce house, snowballs, flying kites, chalk projects, and more!

We are so glad our scholars got a chance to celebrate all their amazing accomplishments throughout the school year as we prepare for our Transition Ceremony tomorrow!

A legacy of care that has been building since 1960:
At Emerge, the work shown here reflects more than a moment in time. It represents decades of commitment to helping children build communication, independence, and confidence that carry forward into their lives.

With continued support from our community, Emerge can keep expanding access to these services and creating opportunities for children to grow and succeed, today and in the future.

Ava’s joy shines brightest when she’s exploring, creating, and learning through play.

Whether she’s making art or discovering something new, each moment is helping her build confidence, curiosity, and connection to the world around her.

At Emerge, these experiences are more than play, they are meaningful opportunities for growth that help each child reach their full potential.

You can help make moments like these possible. Your support ensures children like Ava have the tools and environment they need to keep discovering, creating, and thriving.

Today, on the final day of Autism Acceptance Month, we recognize a powerful reality: 1 in 31 children are now diagnosed with autism.

As the need continues to grow, so does the demand for Emerge’s services. We are committed to serving every child and family, regardless of their ability to pay, but we cannot do it without the support of our community.

In honor of the 1 in 31, we invite you to make a one-time or monthly gift of $31. Your generosity helps sustain the life-changing therapies and services that children and families rely on every day.
