Building lifelong relationships
Sierra began her journey with St. David's Center as a preschool student. Now a vibrant teenager, she is building lifelong relationships in the after-school Adventure program.
St. David's Center has always been a source of support for Sierra's family. After she graduated from preschool, Sierra was placed in a daycare situation where the staff could not care for her needs. That's when Sierra's mom learned about the after-school Adventure program at St. David's Center. Sierra immediately developed deep bonds with the Adventure staff. Her mom believes "she will have some of these friendships for life."
Why has Sierra spent so much of her journey at St. David's Center? "She has always felt comfortable here and has been given opportunities she wouldn't have anywhere else."
