At PCDA, everything we do is rooted in connection, showing up for children, teens, and young adults exactly as they are and walking alongside them as they grow.

The Circle of Care is our monthly giving community, made up of people who believe in that same steady, compassionate support. By giving each month, you help create consistency in services, deepen relationships, and ensure our participants always have a place where they feel seen, heard, and valued.

No gift is too small. It is the collective care that makes a difference.

Last Thursday was truly a special evening! ✨

We are beyond grateful to our board member Catherine for opening her beautiful home and generously providing delicious food for our guests. Her warmth and hospitality set the tone for a night filled with connection, joy, and meaningful conversation.

To everyone who joined us, thank you for showing up with open hearts and incredible generosity. And to those who were not able to attend but still made a gift, we felt your support just the same. Your belief in our mission means more than we can say.

It was a wonderful, energizing house party where we had the chance to share the impact of PCDA’s work and invite guests to experience a fun and interactive “taste of PCDA.” The laughter, curiosity, and heartfelt conversations reminded us exactly why community matters so much.

A special thank you to our silent auction donors for making the evening even more exciting, and to those who joined The Circle of Care, our monthly recurring giving community. Your commitment provides steady, reliable support that helps our families feel secure and connected all year long.

If you have not yet joined The Circle of Care, we would love to welcome you. Monthly giving is one of the most powerful ways to stand alongside our families and ensure this work continues to grow. Visit the link in our bio to become part of the circle. 🟡⚪
