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.

💛 Our H.A.V.E.N. events feel like one big family reunion — and June’s gathering at Bendix Woods was no exception! Families spent a beautiful day making memories, laughing together, and enjoying the outdoors. While the kids played and had fun, parent caregivers connected, shared valuable insights, and had an opportunity to access an amazing resource graciously provided by Molly Berry at Reliable Medical. We’re so grateful for days like these! 💛
