Sit on the Board of Directors for Deliver the Dream which provides structured, therapeutic, fun activities for families experiencing a serious illness or crisis on a three-day, two-night retreat weekend experience. Each retreat is geared towards a specific illness/crisis such as autism, spina bifida, death of a loved one, Down syndrome and cancer. There is no charge for families to attend. Families are normally referred by a network of not-for-profit and healthcare organizations throughout the state of Florida. Families can also be self-referred.On these retreats, families will participate in structured activities such as assorted recreational indoor and outdoor activities, discussion groups, interactive games, creative workshops, team building exercises, and more! If you have ever been to camp, we do a lot of the same activities. These activities are designed to have a positive outcome that transforms your coping skills; improves communication between your family; and strengthens the bonds between each family and each family member. This therapeutic retreat will also provide your family with resources and an opportunity to network with other families dealing with a similar situation.
