Key things to know about DBKids Resource:
We partner alongside parents & guardians to best suit all kids’ needs during services.
We ask that you fill out a Child Info Sheet to let us know about your child’s needs. This form can also be found at DBKids Check-ins.
Resource Buddies are volunteers with a heart to minister to children with broad ranges of special needs and/or disabilities.

We look forward to partnering with your family.

A routine is an established pattern of activities, such as tasks or chores aimed at bringing order and efficiency to everyday life. Building routines brings predictability to the day. This reduces stress for children, helping them better thrive in their environment.
