Leap of Faith
Family to Family Support
About Us
Leap of Faith Family to Family Support, is a California 501 c(3) that began in September 2019. It was formed in 2002 when I was gifted with being a mother to an amazing little baby girl, Faith. Faith could not breathe on her own for eleven minutes after birth. As a result of Faith’s traumatic birth, she has Developmental Disabilities. As the Mother of a child with Developmental Disabilities and Foster Parent, I have been at the forefront of experiencing not only isolation, but also neglect from systems of care and frequent disparity. This experience inspired me to work with and for many other special needs parents and caregivers are and or were under-resourced. So, I founded Leap of Faith Family to Family Support to build community-capacity, develop parent-to-parent support, and create a culture of wellness, self-care, and outspoken advocacy. We have created an extraordinary bond with families by understanding not only our children’s specific needs, but also our remarkable parents and their needs.

Our Offerings
Our Vision is to bring about self determination, connection, change and access to services and supports in the lives of special needs clients, families, and underrepresented families and individuals through, that are frequently affected by disparity.
Our Mission is the first priority of Leap of Faith Family to Family Support to bring a reassuring presence to families and organizations alike. A parent-led community-based organization that advocates for and protects the rights and entitlements for all individuals with developmental disabilities and their families, Leap of Faith promotes fairness, equity, elimination of disparity for minority families in California, advocating for policy change. We host fun social events for parents of children with Developmental Disabilities to ward off the isolation and daily challenges we may face.

Leap of Faith offers Family to Family support impacted by ethnic disparities, inequalities, and special health needs in nagativing California’s Systems of Care
In a world that can be challenging, we strive to offer hope in supporting families to thrive in an inclusive community through interpersonal relationships, fun and inclusive activities, and compassionate service.
