Free licensed part-time childcare for children with special needs. Also offers programs for school-aged children.

AWARE started in 1976 with a small group of parents sitting around a kitchen table discussing opportunities and possibilities for their children who had special needs. Their discussions led to the opening of a small furniture refinishing business where people affected by developmental disabilities could learn a trade and make a valuable contribution to the community. The AWARE acronym – Anaconda Work and Residential Enterprises – reflects that historical mission.

We see a bright future for your child & family! Youth Dynamics provides strength-based, client-centered, supportive mental health services to children and families. At Youth Dynamics we don’t believe in wait listing families. We believe in getting your child into mental health services as soon as he or she needs them!
