Will you support PARCA today? Your support helps us make a significant impact in the lives of so many remarkable people with developmental disabilities in the Bay Area.

This year, presented unique challenges for our clients, their families, caretakers, providers, and our staff. Our clients are at a heightened risk for coronavirus and struggle with social isolation. Many clients and their families lost their jobs and were unable to pay for food and care.

We've worked tirelessly to provide the best level of care, compassion, and kindness to our clients and their families. We're constantly adapting to our "new normal" and seeking to ensure we're all connected and clients are provided the care they need and deserve.

We shifted to provide a day program for clients at one of our homes, we have all-day childcare and remote learning support for children of essential workers, and we provide our clients who are essential workers with proper PPE and share how to stay safe and healthy.

We're honored to learn from our clients and with them. They're joyful, positive, and optimistic during such an uncertain time. We're grateful for all the Zoom birthdays, the pen pal letter exchanges, setting and reaching fitness goals together, and our virtual holiday celebrations.

Please join us in making a year-end donation to PARCA. Your generous support of any amount helps us provide services, safety, and a sense of community to people with developmental disabilities in the Bay Area.

Thank you for giving and sharing widely! We're incredibly grateful.
