When Armani joined the Family Focus program on August 16, 2023, he faced challenges in language, cognitive development, and fine motor skills. But today, just a year later, he’s a shining example of what’s possible when dedication, teamwork, and love come together.


At the time, Armani was nonverbal. Today, he speaks more than 100 words and forms 4- to 5-word sentences with growing confidence. He can follow directions during circle time, thread beads on a string, understand spatial concepts like “under” and “on,” hold scissors with one hand, and swing independently, something that fills him with pride and joy.

Capital Campaign Update

We’re thrilled to share that thanks to generous donors, we have raised $7.6 million toward our $10 million Raise the Roof Capital Campaign.


The finish line is in sight, just $2.4 million to go!


This new Children’s Services Center will transform the lives of children and families for generations to come. Together, we can cross the finish line and open the doors to brighter futures.


Every gift brings us closer to Raising the Roof

and making history for the children we serve.

Here’s how you can help:


  • Make your own gift today
  • Spread the news to your family and friends
  • Invite others to join this amazing mission

Year-End Giving: It's Closer Than You Think!

Why Give before December 31?



  • Your gift may provide important tax benefits this year.
  • Many employers offer matching gifts, doubling your impact when made before year’s end.
  • Recurring monthly gifts (like through our Faithful Friends program) are an easy way to set your support in motion year-round.


And don’t forget—stock transfers, IRA rollovers, and donor-advised fund grants are powerful tools to make your generosity go further. If you’d like to learn more about these options, please contact Phillip Deal (pdeal@parc-fl.org or 727-341-6905) for assistance.
