Sidekicks is a respite care program designed for children and adults with special needs and their siblings. These fun, inclusive, community-based events are held each month and are FREE to everyone. Guests of all ages and abilities enjoy snacks, activities, and special visitors. Our experienced staff and lead volunteers oversee all events. Sidekicks allows people of all-abilities to enjoy an night of fun and community.
