Why We're So Vital
For Families
Children who are medically fragile come to A Rosie Place for up to 10 nights at a time for respite stays. During this time, parents are given the gift of time to go on a date night, experience fun activities with their healthy children or enjoy much needed rest. We also host special events throughout the year, families (parents, fragile children, and siblings) are given opportunities to connect with others in a supportive environment and central location.

💙🦷Last month, our friends at Zent Family Dentistry hosted a very special Dental Day for our Rosie Kids. Their amazing team volunteered their time to provide free cleanings, exams, and x-rays to our children—many of whom face unique medical challenges that often make routine dental care difficult.
We are beyond grateful for their kindness, compassion, and commitment to our children and families. Moments like this remind us what community is all about. 💖
We love to see these smiles! ✨

A handful of our team volunteered their time to provide free cleanings, exams, and x-rays to these brave and beautiful children, many of whom face daily medical challenges that often make routine dental care difficult.
It was a day full of smiles, laughter, and compassion, and a reminder of why we do what we do. We are so grateful to the families who entrusted us with their children’s care. 💖
Because every child deserves a healthy smile. 🎈🪥🦷🪥💙
