Annual Appeal

Chloe, a vibrant seven-year-old, faced challenges using the toilet, a seemingly insurmountable obstacle. Various methods had been attempted with little success, leading to a sense of hopelessness. Daniel, a two-and-a-half-year-old dinosaur enthusiast, faced his own hurdles. His intense tantrums made simple errands a challenging ordeal for his mom, Wendy. The future seemed uncertain, and hope was slipping away.

But thanks to Crossroads, hope was reignited. Through collaborations with their respective school districts and evaluations, both Chloe and Daniel became students at Crossroads. Here, they found a path forward. Chloe now uses the toilet independently and even brushes her own teeth. Oliver, meanwhile, makes his way to school each day, displaying a growing mastery of the alphabet. Wendy, Daniel’s mom, can begin part-time work, all while knowing her child is in good hands. Their secret? The incorporation of ABA practices into their education plans.

These stories of renewed hope and progress are what make Crossroads unique and indispensable in our community. Since 1998, we’ve grown to meet the needs of more and more children. While our programs flourish, the financial strain has never been greater. As a non-profit, we rely on annual campaigns and the incredible generosity of donors to bridge the gap between tuition payments and the actual cost of providing our students with the support they need.

This year, we have an even bigger dream – to raise the roof and secure a permanent facility that we will own through our building project. Your contribution to this year’s annual campaign will not only sustain our vital work but also help us take that giant leap forward. You are the strength upon which our foundation is built, allowing us to help children like Chloe and Daniel realize the skills that are so essential for success in life.
