What is Adopt a Family?

Adopt a Family is a program that allows DAIS to continue to care about the people we’ve served, even when they’re no longer an active client. We want to do everything we can to continue to support their safety and independence.  So, every year, we invite clients from the current calendar year to create a Holiday Wish List. We then match the Wish List with a donor in the community who will help fulfill that family’s wishes for the holiday season. Businesses and organizations can choose to adopt a family as well.
